About: E. coli nitroreductase

An Entity of Type: protein, from Named Graph: http://dbpedia.org, within Data Space: dbpedia.org

E. coli nitroreductase is a flavoprotein found in the bacteria Escherichia coli. It catalyses the reduction of nitro groups in a wide range of substrates to produce the corresponding hydroxylamine. Although its role in vivo is unclear, it has been identified as useful in the metabolism of a number of prodrugs in anti-cancer gene therapy.
