The nitrite reductase (Nir) isolated fromPseudomonas chlororaphisDSM 50135 is a blue enzyme, with type 1 and type 2 copper centers, as in all copper-containing Nirs des-cribed so far. For the first time, a direct determination of the reduction potentials of both copper centers in a Cu-Nir was performed: type 2 copper (T2Cu), 172 mV and type 1 copper (T1Cu), 298 mV at pH . Although the obtained values seem to be inconsistent with the established electron-transfer mechanism, EPR data indicate that the binding of nitrite to theT2Cu center increases its potential, favoring the electron-transfer process. . | Eur.

Although the obtained values seem to be inconsistent with the established electrontransfer mechanism EPR data indicate that the binding of nitrite to the T2Cu center increases its potential favoring the electron-transfer process. Analysis of the EPR spectrum of the turnover form of the enzyme also suggests that the electron-transfer process between T1Cu and T2Cu is the fastest of the three redox processes involved in the catalysis a reduction of T1Cu b oxidation of T1Cu by T2Cu and c reoxidation of T2Cu by NO2-. Electrochemical experiments showthat azurin from the same organism can donate electrons to this enzyme. Keywords copper nitrite reductase EPR redox-titration type 1 copper type 2 copper. Several microorganisms reduce nitrate in a stepwise manner via nitrite to form sequentially NO N2O and eventually dinitrogen as part of their energy-generating metabolism in a process known as denitrification. Nitrite reductase Nir plays a key .
