Protein
Periplasmic nitrate reductase, electron transfer subunit
Organism
Cupriavidus necator (strain ATCC 17699 / H16 / DSM 428 / Stanier 337)
Function
Electron transfer subunit of the periplasmic nitrate reductase complex NapAB. Receives electrons from the membrane-anchored tetraheme c-type NapC protein and transfers these to NapA subunit, thus allowing electron flow between membrane and periplasm. Essential for periplasmic nitrate reduction with nitrate as the terminal electron acceptor.
Similarity
Belongs to the NapB family.
