| Hydrazine synthase | hzsABC | 1.14.99.39 | K20934 K20933 K20932 |
Ammonia monooxygenase (AMO) catalyzes the oxidation of ammonia to hydroxylamine, the first reaction in the process of ammonia oxidation to nitrite. | Link |
| Hydrazine oxidoreductase | hzo | 1.7.2.8 | K20935 | The HZO enzyme (hydrazine oxidoreductase) catalyzes the initial hydrazine-forming reaction during the anammox biochemical process. Hydrazine is oxidized to molecular nitrogen N(2) | Link |
| Hydrazine dehydrogenase | n/a | 1.7.2.8 | K20935 | The four-electron oxidation of hydrazine by an HAO-like protein called hydrazine dehydrogenase (HDH) would make dinitrogen gas | Link |
| c-type cytochrome proteins (anammoxosome) | ccsAB | id08162 | K01764 | Play a key role in the unique anammox metabolism in bacteria. The bacterial working model involves two transmembrane proteins (CcsAB), forming a channel entry, facilitate the heme transport and the maintenance of it in a reduced state at the p-side of the membrane. A dedicated membrane-anchored thiol-disulfide oxidoreductase (CcsX) reduces the apocytochrome c cysteines while reducing equivalents are transferred from a nonspecific cytoplasmic thioredoxin to the thiol-disulfide membrane transporter (DsbD or CcdA) | Link |
