Nitrate reductase (cytochrome) (EC 1.9.6.1, respiratory nitrate reductase, benzyl viologen-nitrate reductase) is an enzyme with systematic name ferrocytochrome:nitrate oxidoreductase.[1] This enzyme catalises the following chemical reaction
- 2 ferrocytochrome + 2 H+ + nitrate 2 ferricytochrome + nitrite
