DESCRIPTION

Also known as NMO_STAA2, SaurJH1_0937. Nitronate monooxygenase that uses molecular oxygen to catalyze the oxidative denitrification of alkyl nitronates. Acts on propionate 3-nitronate (P3N), the presumed physiological substrate. Probably functions in the detoxification of P3N, a metabolic poison produced by plants and fungi as a defense mechanism.
