Enzyme Information
| 1.7.99.1 | 
							 Hydroxylamine reductase. 
							based on mapping to UniProt P72181 		
							NH(3) + H(2)O + acceptor = hydroxylamine + reduced acceptor. 
							-!- Reduced pyocyanine, methylene blue and flavins act as donors for the reduction of hydroxylamine. -!- May be identical to EC 1.7.2.1.

| 1.7.2.1 | 
							 Nitrite reductase (NO-forming). 
							based on mapping to UniProt P72181 		
							Nitric oxide + H(2)O + ferricytochrome c = nitrite + ferrocytochrome c + 2 H(+). 
							-!- The reaction is catalyzed by two types of enzymes, found in the perimplasm of denitrifying bacteria. -!- One type comprises proteins containing multiple copper centers, the other a heme protein, cytochrome cd1. -!- Acceptors include c-type cytochromes such as cytochrome c-550 or cytochrome c-551 from Paracoccus denitrificans or Pseudomonas aeruginosa, and small blue copper proteins such as azurin and pseudoazurin. -!- Cytochrome cd1 also has oxidase and hydroxylamine reductase activities. -!- May also catalyze the reaction of EC 1.7.99.1 since this is a well- known activity of cytochrome cd1. -!- Formerly EC 1.6.6.5, EC 1.7.99.3 and EC 1.9.3.2.
