Abstract excerpt
Nitrous oxide reductase (N2OR) is a dimeric copper-dependent bacterial enzyme that catalyzes the reduction of N2O to N2 as part of the denitrification pathway. In the absence of an x-ray crystal structure, the current model of the nature of the copper sites within the enzyme is based on four copp...
