General description

Nitrate reductase (NAD[P]H) is expressed in variety of organisms including bacteria, fungi, algae, and higher plants which have capacity to use nitrate as their sole source of nitrogen.Experimental studies show that nitrate reductase (NAD[P]H) is 180,000Daltons.[1]

Biochem/physiol Actions

Nitrate Reductase (NAD[P]H) catalyzes the reduction of nitrate to nitrite. In addition, it also catalyzes the reduction of NADPH-cytochrome c, FADH2-nitrate. Nitrate reductase also has reduced methyl viologen-nitrate reductase activities.[1]

Caution

light and moisture sensitive

Unit Definition

One unit will reduce 1.0 μmole of nitrate per min in the presence of β-NADPH at pH 7.5 at 25 °C.

Questions

1–2 of 2 Questions  
  1. How much does 2units weigh?

    1 answer
    1. The amount of solid provided will depend on the enzymatic activity reported on the lot-specific Certificate of Analysis. For example, lot SLCR1079 has the enzymatic activity value of 481 units per gram, thus the 2-unit package size would contain roughly 4.16 ug of solid.

      Please view the sample Certificate of Analysis below to see the enzymatic activity:

  2. Guten Tag, benötige ich für die Reaktion denn nicht auch das FAD ?

    1 answer
    1. FAD, Flavin Adenine Dinucleotide, is a component used in determining the activity of Nitrate Reductase. See the link below to review the enzymatic assay protocol:
