Crystal structure of NirF: Insights into its role in heme <i>d</i> <sub>1</sub> biosynthesis

2020-01-14

Abstract excerpt

Certain facultative anaerobes such as the opportunistic human pathogen Pseudomonas aeruginosa can respire on nitrate, a process generally known as denitrification. This enables denitrifying bacteria to survive in anoxic environments and contributes e.g. to the formation of biofilm, hence increasing difficulties in eradicating P. aeruginosa infections. A central step in denitrification is the reduction of nitrite...
