Mechanism of Two-/Four-Electron Reduction of Nitroaromatics by Oxygen-Insensitive Nitroreductases: The Role of a Non-Enzymatic Reduction Step
Oxygen-insensitive NAD(P)H:nitroreductases (NR) reduce nitroaromatics (Ar-NO(2)) into hydroxylamines (Ar-NHOH) through nitroso (Ar-NO) intermediates. Ar-NO may be reduced both enzymatically and directly by reduced nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide or its phosphate NAD(P)H, however, it is unclear whi...
