Function

Reductase involved in the detoxification of N-hydroxylated base analogs. Contributes to the detoxification of 6-N-hydroxylaminopurine (HAP) by catalyzing the reduction of HAP to adenine. In the presence of methyl viologen as reduced electron donor, it is also active toward other N-hydroxy substrates such as 2-amino-6-hydroxylaminopurine (2-AHAP), N-hydroxyadenosine, N-hydroxyacetamidine, N-hydroxyurea and hydroxylamine, but it cannot use N-oxide and sulfoxide substrates, or nitrate and chlorate.

Protein Biology

Function

Reductase involved in the detoxification of N-hydroxylated base analogs (PubMed:18312271). Contributes to the detoxification of 6-N-hydroxylaminopurine (HAP) by catalyzing the reduction of HAP to adenine (PubMed:18312271, PubMed:35640667). In the presence of methyl viologen as reduced electron donor, it is also active toward other N-hydroxy substrates such as 2-amino-6-hydroxylaminopurine (2-AHAP), N-hydroxyadenosine, N-hydroxyacetamidine, N-hydroxyurea and hydroxylamine, but it cannot use N-oxide and sulfoxide substrates, or nitrate and chlorate (PubMed:35640667). The reducing equivalents required for the detoxification reaction may be provided by the sulfite reductase component CysJ, which functions as a partner of YcbX (PubMed:20118259). YcbX is not involved in molybdenum cofactor (MoCo) biosynthesis or in MoCo sulfuration (PubMed:18312271)
