Oxygen-insensitive nitroreductases NfsA and NfsB of Escherichia coli function under anaerobic conditions as lawsone-dependent azo reductases
Article Abstract:
Research has been conducted on Escherichia coli. The ability of this bacterium to perform lawsone-dependent azo reductases, and the enzymatic activity responsible for this ability have been investigated, and the results are reported.
