hydroxylamine:oxygen oxidoreductase
The enzyme from the heterotrophic nitrifying bacterium Paracoccus denitrificans contains three to five non-heme, non-iron-sulfur iron atoms and interacts with cytochrome c556 and pseudoazurin [2,3]. Under anaerobic conditions in vitro only nitrous oxide is formed [3]. Presumably nitroxyl is released and combines with a second nitroxyl to give nitrous oxide and water. When oxygen is present, nitrite is formed.
under aerobic assay conditions nitrite is the major reaction product but N2O is also detected at low levels. Under anaerobic conditions no nitrite is produced but N2O is detected, though at non-stoichiometric levels. The production of nitrite by Paracoccus denitrificans hydroxylamine oxidase is an oxygen-dependent reaction

the enzyme utilizes horse-heart cytochrome c as an electron acceptor but is unable to donate electrons to purified Pseudomonas denitrificans cytochrome c550 or pseudoazurin, or to Pseudomonas aeruginosa azurin

non-heme iron enzyme, the enzyme could possess a non-heme ferric iron centre that is lost when the 20000 Da polypeptide is subjected to SDS-PAGE, but that can be reconstituted by addition of Fe3+ ions to the refolded enzyme
