Name Probable flavin mononucleotide-dependent alkene reductase
Synonyms
  1. Flavin mononucleotide-dependent nitroreductase
  2. NTR2
Gene Name (REFSEQ) PUTATIVE NADH:FLAVIN OXIDOREDUCTASE/NADH OXIDASE
Protein Type Unknown
Biological Properties
General Function Not Available
Specific Function May function as a flavin mononucleotide (FMN)-dependent alkene reductase on substrates carrying alpha,beta-unsaturated carbonyl groups (ketones, aldehydes, carboxylic acids, esters, lactones or cyclic imides). The catalysis depends on NAD(P)H, which acts as hydride donor for the reduction. Seems to be involved in metabolic pathways required for efficient replication of amastigotes within macrophages.Acts as a FMN-dependent nitroreductase that activates anti-leishmanial bicyclic nitroaromatic prodrugs including delamanid, DNDI-VL-2098 and (R)-PA-824, forming toxic products that kill the parasites.
