The authors also thank their colleague for sending them the coordinates of mercuric ion reductase. |
Sulphate reduction is initiated and carried out by the enzyme APS reductase in leaf and root plastids. |
The enzymatic mechanism of detoxification involves dehydroascorbate reductase, glutathione reductase and other enzymes. |
The polyol pathway uses the enzyme aldose reductase to convert glucose to sorbitol. |
This would be analogous to other flavoproteins such as mercuric ion reductase, lipoamide dehydrogenase, and thioredoxin reductase. |
In patients with normal reductase function, significant production of methemoglobin would require even larger doses of isosorbide-5-mononitrate. |
