1 The NapB protein is essential in transferring electrons to the large catalytic subunit NapA, which subsequently reduces nitrate to nitrite. Acecainide NSF attachment protein beta Homo sapiens
2 We propose a hypothetical but plausible model of the NapAB complex in which the four redox centers are positioned in a virtually linear configuration which spans a distance of nearly 40 A, suggesting an efficient pathway for the transfer of electrons from NapC, the physiological electron donor of NapB, to a nitrate molecule at the catalytic site of NapA.
