Characterization of the nitric oxide reductase from Thermus thermophilus

Abstract: Nitrous oxide (N 2 O) is a powerful greenhouse gas implicated in climate change. The dominant source of atmospheric N 2 O is incomplete biological dentrification, and the enzymes responsible for the release of N 2 O are NO reductases. It was recently reported that ambient emissions of N 2 O from the Great Boiling Spring in the United States Great Basin are high, and attributed to incomplete denitrification by … Show more

“…Lys-53 C is present in T. thermophilus cNOR, but its role was not investigated. The reason for the differences between the results of our study and the study with T. thermophilus cNOR (18) is not known. It is possible that PW 1 is used in the P. denitrificans cNOR (and P. aeruginosa cNOR) but not in T. thermophilus cNOR.…”

“…We note that the Lys-54 C is actually more conserved than the Glu-58 C (100% compared with 77%; Table 1 and Ref. 18). Although we do not have an explanation for this at the moment, we do note that the sequences that do not have Glu-58 C cluster together in the alignment and belong to different subgroups of the cNOR family than the subgroup of P. aeruginosa and P. denitrificans (18).…”

“…The three-dimensional (3D) structures of both the soluble domain and all of complex I of T. thermophilus have been recently obtained by X-ray crystallography (33,35). A putative type II NADH oxidase (36) and the tricarboxylic acid cycle component succinate dehydrogenase (complex II) provide electrons to the respiratory chain as well (37). Electrons are transferred to menaquinone-8, the major quinone in the membrane of this organism (38).…”
