The C-terminal cupredoxin domain of Nitrous-oxide reductase
Nitrous-oxide reductase participates in nitrogen metabolism and catalyzes the last step in dissimilatory nitrate reduction, the two-electron reduction of N2O to N2. It contains copper ions as cofactors in the form of a binuclear CuA center at the site of electron entry and a tetranuclear CuZ centre at the active site. The C-terminus of Nitrous-oxide reductase is a cupredoxin domain.
