| Description | A number of different eukaryotic oxidoreductases that require and bind a molybdopterin cofactor have been shown [ ] to share a few regions of sequence similarity. These enzymes include xanthine dehydrogenase (), aldehyde oxidase ( ), nitrate reductase ( ), and sulphite oxidase ( ). The multidomain redox enzyme NAD(P)H:nitrate reductase (NR) catalyses the reduction of nitrate to nitrite in a single polypeptide electron transport chain with electron flow from NAD(P)H-FAD-cytochrome b5-molybdopterin-NO(3). Three forms of NR are known, an NADH-specific enzyme found in higher plants and algae (); an NAD(P)H-bispecific enzyme found in higher plants, algae and fungi (); and an NADPH-specific enzyme found only in fungi ( ) [ ]. Themitochondrial enzyme sulphite oxidase (sulphite:ferricytochrome c oxidoreductase; ) catalyses oxidation of sulphite to sulphate, using cytochrome c as the physiological electron acceptor. Sulphite oxidase consists of two structure/function domains, an N-terminal haem domain, similar to cytochrome b5; and a C-terminal molybdopterin domain [ ]. |
