Abstract excerpt
Flavodiiron proteins (FDPs) are a family of enzymes endowed with nitric oxide (NO) or oxygen reductase activities, forming the innocuous nitrous oxide (N2O) or water molecules, respectively. FDPs are widespread in the three life kingdoms, and have a modular nature, being each monomer minimally constituted by a metallo-β-lactamase-like domain containing a catalytic diiron centre, followed by a flavodoxin one, with...
