A key distinction between COX and NOR is the identity of the metal directly opposite the heme b3 within the active site. In NOR, this metal is iron (FeB) whereas in COX it is copper (CuB). The purified NOR of Roseobacter denitrificans contains copper and has modest oxidase activity raising the possibility that a COX-like active site might have independently arisen within the context of a NOR-like protein scaffold. Here we present the crystal structure of the Roseobacter denitrificans NorBC complex and anomalous scattering experiments probing the identity of each metal centre. Our results refute the hypothesis that copper occupies the active site and instead reveal a new metal centre in the small subunit not seen in any other NOR or COX.
