General annotation (Comments)

Function

Nitrous-oxide reductase is part of a bacterial respiratory system which is activated under anaerobic conditions in the presence of nitrate or nitrous oxide. HAMAP-Rule MF_00716

Catalytic activity

Nitrogen + H2O + 2 ferricytochrome c = nitrous oxide + 2 ferrocytochrome c + 2 H+. HAMAP-Rule MF_00716

Cofactor

Binds 2 calcium ions per subunit.

Binds 6 copper ions Each subunit contains 2 copper centers; Cu(A) (binuclear) and Cu(Z) (tetranuclear). Cu(Z) is thought to be the site of nitrous oxide reduction.

Pathway

Nitrogen metabolism; nitrate reduction (denitrification); dinitrogen from nitrate: step 4/4. HAMAP-Rule MF_00716

Subunit structure

Homodimer.

Subcellular location

Periplasm HAMAP-Rule MF_00716.

Post-translational modification

Predicted to be exported by the Tat system. The position of the signal peptide cleavage has been experimentally proven. HAMAP-Rule MF_00716

Sequence similarities

Belongs to the NosZ family.

In the C-terminal section; belongs to the cytochrome c oxidase subunit 2 family.
