in order to use nitrate as an electron acceptor, Escherichia coli synthesises three distinct enzymes: a membrane-bound enzyme (nitrate reductase A, NarGHI) encoded by the narGHJI operon and a soluble periplasmic nitrate reductase (NapAB, EC 1.9.6.1) encoded by the napFDAGHBC operon. A second membrane-bound nitrate reductase (nitrate reductase Z, NarZYV) encoded by the NarZYWV operon is biochemically similar to NarGHI. Whereas NarGHI synthesis is induced by nitrate under anaerobic conditions, NarZYV is expressed at a cryptic level and may assist Escherichia coli in transition from aerobic to anaerobic respiration (physiological role of this isoenzyme at the onset of the stationary growth phase in rich media). NapAB is mainly expressed in the presence of low concentrations of nitrate under both aerobic and anaerobic conditions, and its expression is suppressed at high nitrate concentrations. Conversely, NarGHI is maximally expressed when nitrate concentration is elevated, and under these conditions becomes the predominant enzyme in Escherichia coli. Thus, NapAB (Ec 1.9.6.1) and NarGHI seem to function in different ranges of nitrate concentration in a complementary way to support anaerobic respiration on nitrate under anaerobic conditions and in the presence of nitrate

Escherichia coli expresses two different membrane-bound respiratory nitrate reductases, nitrate reductase A (NRA) and nitrate reductase Z (NRZ). The two enzymes are encoded by distinct operons located within two different loci on the Escherichia coli chromosome. The narGHJI operon, encoding nitrate reductase A, is located in the chlC locus at 27 min, along with several functionally related genes: narK, encoding a nitrate/nitrite antiporter, and the narXL operon, encoding a nitrate-activated, two component regulatory system. The narZYWV operon, encoding nitrate reductase Z, is located in the chlZ locus located at 32.5 min, a region which includes a narK homologue, narU, but no apparent homologue to the narXL operon. The two membrane-bound enzymes have similar structures and biochemical properties and are capable of reducing nitrate using normal physiological substrates. The homology of the amino acid sequences of the peptides encoded by the two operons is extremely high but the intergenic regions share no related sequences. The expression of both the narGHJI operon and the narK gene are positively regulated by two transacting factors Fnr and NarL-phosphate, activated respectively by anaerobiosis and nitrate, while the narZYWV operon and the narU gene are constitutively expressed. Nitrate reductase A, which accounts for 98% of the nitrate reductase activity when fully induced, is clearly the major respiratory nitrate reductase in Escherichia coli

nitrate reductase Z expression is regulated in a manner opposite to that of nitrate reductase A. The narGHJZ operon is aerobically repressed, strongly induced by nitrate and positively regulated by the fnr gene product. The expression of narZ is anaerobically repressed, induced weakly, if at all, by nitrate and negatively regulated by the fnr gene product. The opposing regulation of these two enzymes suggests that a function of nitrate reductase Z may be to catalyse the immediate flow of electrons to nitrate during an aerobic/anaerobic transition when the bacterium is grown in the presence of nitrate

quinone site variants Lys86 and Gly65, Q-site inhibitor HOQNO, and their effects on heme bD, overview
metabolism
nitrate enters the periplasm through porins where it is reduced to nitrite by the periplasmic nitrate reductase (Nap) or it is further transported into the bacterial cytosol by NarK and serves as an electron acceptor for nitrate reductase A (NarG). Periplasmic nitrite is further converted to NH3 by the periplasmic nitrite reductase (Nrf). Electrons required for these reactions can be transferred to the quinone (Q) pool by NADH:ubiquinone oxidoreductase (Nuo) in a reaction coupled to energy-conserving proton translocation

metabolism
-
demethylmenasemiquinone and menasemiquinone bind in a similar and strongly asymmetric manner through a short H-bond, caused by slightly inequivalent contributions from two beta-methylene protons of the isoprenoid side chain. Their large isotropic hyperfine coupling constants are consistent with both a specific highly asymmetric binding mode of (demethyl)menasemiquinone and a near in-plane orientation of its isoprenyl chain at Cbeta relative to the aromatic ring, which differs by about 90° to that predicted for free or NarGHI-bound menaquinol
metabolism
O86717; O86716; O86714; O86715
in resting spores the Nar1 nitrate reductase requires a functional cytochrome bcc-aa3 supercomplex to reduce nitrate. Mutants lacking the complete qcr-cta genetic locus show no Nar1-dependent nitrate reduction
metabolism
NarJ serves as a chaperone for both the anaerobic respiratory nitrate reductase (NarG) and the assimilatory nitrate reductase NasC (cf. EC 1.7.1.1), the latter of which is active during both aerobic and anaerobic nitrate assimilation. Both NasC and NarG are inactive in the absence of NarJ. 50% of NarJ binds in a 1:1 complex with NasC and the remaining 50% binds in a 1:1 complex with NarG

physiological function
-
the cytochrome c containing nitrate reductase plays a role in electron transport for denitrification in Thermus thermophilus, narC mutants are defective in anaerobic growth with nitrite, NO and N2O and present decreased NADH oxidation coupled to these electron acceptors
physiological function
-
mutants deficient in all three nitrate reductases narGHI, narXYZ, napFDAGHCB are capable of sustaining 48% of protoporphyrinogen IX oxidases activity and 65% of wild-type activity, respectively
physiological function
-
Streptomyces coelicolor has a high capacity for nitrate reduction both during aerobic growth and when the bacterium is incubated anaerobically. During aerobic growth in liquid medium the bacterium is able to reduce 50 mM nitrate stoichiometrically to nitrite. A mutant lacking all three NarGHJI operons fails to reduce nitrate
physiological function
under nitrate-rich conditions, the nar and nap genes encoding a membrane-bound form and a periplasmic form of nitrate reductase, as well as NO-regulated genes encoding flavohaemoglobin, flavorubredoxin and hybrid cluster protein are induced following transition from the oxic to anoxic state, and 20% of nitrate consumed in steady-state is released as N2O when nitrite has accumulated to millimolar levels. In a narG mutant lacking membrane-bound nitrate reductase, the steady-state rate of N2O production was about 30-fold lower than that of the wild-type. A combination of nitrate-sufficiency, nitrite accumulation and an active Nar-type nitrate reductase leads to NO and thence N2O production, and this can account for up to 20% of the nitrate catabolized
physiological function
the NO2- that arises from human host-derived NO3- through the enzymatic activity of Mycobacterium tuberculosis enzyme NarG inhibits bacterial growth, enhances ATP synthesis, and regulates the expression of 120 genes associated with adaptation to acid, hypoxia, oxidative and nitrosative stress, and iron deprivation. Enzyme NarG can promote growth of this intracellular pathogen in NO-producing human macrophages. Importance of NO3-/NO2- reduction in the pathogenesis. Bis-molybdopterin guanine dinucleotide, the cofactor of nitrate reductase, is required for the persistence of intracellular pathogen Mycobacterium tuberculosis in guinea pigs. The enzymatic activity of Mycobacterium tuberculosis NarG inhibits bacterial growth
physiological function
NarB, NarGHJI, dehydrogenase MSMEG_2237 and MSMEG_6816 are not required for nitrate reduction as MSMEG_4206 serves as the sole assimilatory nitrate reductase
