Evidence for the presence of bactopterin in the eubacterial molybdoenzymes nicotinic acid dehydrogenase, nitrite oxidoreductase, and respiratory nitrate reductase
FEMS Microbiol Lett 48:225-227 (1987)

Bactopterin was resolved in the eubacterial molybdoenzymes nicotinic acid dehydrogenase from Bacillusniacini, nitrite oxidoreductase from Nitrobacter hamburgensis and respiratory nitrate reductase from Pseudomonas stutzeri. These findings lend support to the proposal that bactopterin is a common cofactor of eubacterial molybdoenzymes.
