"The cytochrome
34 2A13 is involved in nicotine metabolism and in the activation of the pro-carcinogenic agents NNK and
35 NNN, by means of α-hydroxylation reactions."
Ligand Details
May play a role in preventing the intracellular formation of nicotine blue semiquinone radicals, which by redox cycling would lead to the formation of toxic reactive oxygen species. Besides nicotine blue, several other quinones are reduced by nboR.
