Nitrotoxin metabolism in bacteria may have emerged from a diverse oxidoreductase reservoir

It is shown that the environmental YrpB/NMO associated oxidoreductase space is dominated by YrpB related proteins: across 13 metagenomes, 83.1% of 390 conserved domain supported candidates were YrpB-associated.
