Popis: Nitrate reductase from spinach (Spinacea oleracea L. v. Noorman) has been purified 2600-fold by a multistep procedure involving streptomycin sulphate treatment, (NH4)2SO4 precipitation, hydroxylapatite adsorption, molecular sieve chromatography and blue-dextran agarose affinity chromatography. Spectral studies of the purified enzyme indicate the presence of a b-type cytochrome associated with the enzyme and involved in both its overall function of reducing nitrate with NADH and its dehydrogenase function using dichlorophenolindophenol (DCPIP) as electron acceptor.
