Nicotinate dehydrogenase (cytochrome) (EC 1.17.2.1, nicotinic acid hydroxylase, nicotinate hydroxylase) is an enzyme with systematic name nicotinate:cytochrome 6-oxidoreductase (hydroxylating).[1][2] This enzyme catalyses the following chemical reaction
This two-component enzyme from Pseudomonas belongs to the family of xanthine dehydrogenases.

Well, that’s interesting to know that Psilotum nudum are known as whisk ferns. Psilotum nudum is the commoner species of the two. While the P. flaccidum is a rare species and is found in the tropical islands. Both the species are usually epiphytic in habit and grow upon tree ferns. These species may also be terrestrial and grow in humus or in the crevices of the rocks.
