Monomer-dimer structural comparison in quinol-dependent nitric oxide reductase reveals a functional basis for superior enzymatic activity in the dimer

Chai C. Gopalasingam, Haruka Egami, Hideki Shigematsu, Masatora Sakaue, Kouki Fukumoto, Christoph Gerle, Masaki Yamamoto, Yoshitsugu Shiro, Kazumasa Muramoto, Takehiko Tosha

The paper compares monomer and dimer structures of NmqNOR to show how dimerization enhances enzymatic activity by stabilizing the active site conformation.
