additional information | several mutations of recombinant cyt b reductase fragment of nitrate reductase in the region Ser920, Arg921 and Arg932 are created. Conversion from NADPH-specific to virtually NADH-specific cyt b reductase fragment of nitrate reductase | Neurospora crassa |
R921S | little impact on NADPH and NADH activity, no importance for pyridine nucleotide specificity | Neurospora crassa |
R921T | little impact on NADPH and NADH activity, no importance for pyridine nucleotide specificity | Neurospora crassa |
R932Q | 1/4 wild type NADPH activity is retained, twice as much NADH activity is present as compared to wild type | Neurospora crassa |
R932S | 1/10 wild type NADPH activity is retained, 2/3 of wild type NADH activity | Neurospora crassa |
S920D | important for the enzyme's interaction with the pyridine nucleotide substrates. Mutant retains ~2% of the NADPH activity of the wild type while it has an increased NADH activity, ~15% higher. It is concluded that Ser920 is a ligand involved in binding the 2' phosphate of NADPH in the wild type enzyme | Neurospora crassa |
S920D/R932S | greatest decrease in NADPH activity of all created mutants, shows that Arg932 is a residue interacting with the pyridine nucleotide coenzyme electron donors and that Ser920 and Arg932 have effects on substrate binding and catalytic activity. Both residues may be ligands to the 2' phosphate of NADPH in the wild type cyt b reductase fragment of nitrate reductase | Neurospora crassa |

nitrite + NADP+ + H2O = nitrate + NADPH + H+ | multicenter redox enzyme. Ser920, Arg921 and Arg932 are suggested to be the key enzymes to investigate for a role in determining pyridine nucleotide specificity. Arg932 may be playing a role in binding the adenine ring of NADPH | Neurospora crassa |
