The nitroreductase family is comprised of a group of FMN- or FAD-dependent enzymes that are able to metabolize nitrosubstituted compounds using the reducing power of NAD(P)H. These nitroreductases can be found in bacterial species and, to a lesser extent, in eukaryotes. There is little informatio...
