Although aNiR can also reduce SO$\rm{{_{3}^{2-}}}$, its activity is much lower than when NO$\rm{{_{2}^{-}}}$ is reduced as the substrate. To increase the SO$\rm{{_{3}^{2-}}}$-reduction activity of aNiR, we performed a N226K mutation of Nii3, a representative aNiR. The resulting Nii3-N226K variant could bind non-native targets, SO$\rm{{_{3}^{2-}}}$, and HCO$\rm{{_{3}^{-}}}$, in addition to its native target, i.e., NO$\rm{{_{2}^{-}}}$. We have determined the high-resolution structure of Nii3-N226K in its apo-state and in complex with SO$\rm{{_{3}^{2-}}}$, NO$\rm{{_{2}^{-}}}$, and HCO$\rm{{_{3}^{-}}}$. This analysis revealed conformational changes of Lys226 and the adjacent Lys224 upon binding of SO$\rm{{_{3}^{2-}}}$, but not NO$\rm{{_{2}^{-}}}$. In contrast, HCO$\rm{{_{3}^{-}}}$ binding induced a conformational change at Arg179. After replacing Asn226 with a positively charged Lys, aNiR showed affinity for several anions. A comparison of all ligand-bound structures for Nii3-N226K revealed that structural changes in the active site depend on the size of the substrate.
