nfsA	BacMet ID: BAC0540 Code for: Enzyme Family: Flavin oxidoreductase frp family Sequence: FASTA Cross-database IDs: Link Organism: Escherichia coli K12 Location: Chromosome Compound: Chromium (Cr) Description: A major oxygen-insensitive nitroreductase of Escherichia coli, is a flavoprotein that is able to reduce chromate to less soluble and less toxic Cr(III). Reduction of nitroaromatic compounds using NADH. Reduces nitrofurazone by a ping-pong bi-bi mechanism possibly to generate a two-electron transfer product. Major component of the oxygen-insensitive nitroreductase activity in E.coli. Length (amino acid): 240 Reference: Ackerley et al. 2004; Pubmed- 15250887	Similar resistance genes in 'BacMet Predicted database'
