Comments

CATALYTIC ACTIVITY: NH₃ + 2 H₂O + 6 oxidized ferredoxin = nitrite + 6 reduced ferredoxin + 7 H⁺.
COFACTOR: Binds 1 siroheme per subunit.
COFACTOR: Binds 1 4Fe-4S cluster per subunit (By similarity).
PATHWAY: Nitrogen metabolism; nitrate reduction (assimilation).
SUBUNIT: Monomer.
SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Plastid, chloroplast.
INDUCTION: By nitrate.
SIMILARITY: Belongs to the nitrite and sulfite reductase 4Fe-4S domain family.
