The plastoquinone antagonist 2,5-dibromothymoquinone was found to inhibit NO-3 reduction from NADH by the
nitrate reductase
complex from wheat. It accepts electrons from NADH through the NADH dehydrogenase activity of the
nitrate reductase
. However, it does not inhibit the reduction of 2,6-dichlorophenol-indophenol by the enzyme. This suggests that the two compounds may be accepting electrons at different places from the enzyme. Further it was observed that reduced
DCIP
could be oxidized by DBMIB in the absence of NADH indicating that the electron flow in the
nitrate reductase
complex may take place in a unidirectional way.
