Abstract:
In Lactococcus lactis IL1403, 14 genes are under the control of the copper-inducible CopR repressor. This so-called CopR regulon encompasses the CopR regulator, two putative CPx-type copper ATPases, a copper chaperone, and 10 additional genes of unknown function. We addressed here the function of one of these genes, ytjD, which we renamed cinD (copper-induced nitroreductase). Copper, cadmium, and silver induced cinD in vivo, as shown by real-time quantitative PCR. A knockout mutant of cinD was more sensitive to oxidative stress exerted by 4-nitroquinoline-N-oxide and copper. Purified CinD is a flavoprotein and reduced 2,6-dichlorophenolindophenol and 4-nitroquinoline-N-oxide with k(cat) values of 27 and 11 s(-1), respectively, using NADH as a reductant. CinD also exhibited significant catalase activity in vitro. The X-ray structure of CinD was resolved at 1.35 A and resembles those of other nitroreductases. CinD is thus a nitroreductase which can protect L. lactis against oxidative stress that could be exerted by nitroaromatic compounds and copper.

Complex Evidence:
Authors claim that the homodimeric NAD(P)H nitroreductase is a highly intertwined dimer with the FMN binding site lying at the dimer interface (PMID:18241886). Other structures belonging to the nitroreductase family also have an extensive interaction surface wherein a large hydrophobic solvent-accessible surface becomes buried upon dimer formation, suggesting that the monomers would be unstable on their own (PMID:16229462, PMID:19436071). Domain-swapping is also typical, where the extended C-terminal region extensively interacts with the core domain of the neighbouring monomer, forming an interlocked dimer (PMID:34473996, PMID:19436071, PMID:8885832).
