EC Tree > 1 Oxidoreductases > 1.7 Acting on other nitrogenous compounds as donors > 1.7.99 With unknown physiological acceptors > 1.7.99.4 nitrate reductase
Nitrate reductase is an oxidoreductase acting on nitrogenous compounds as donors; the enzyme from Pseudomonas is a cytochrome whereas that from Micrococcus halodenitrificans is an iron protein containing molybdenum, and reduced benzyl viologen and other dyes can serve as electron donors for nitrate reduction.
