Biochem/physiol Actions

Ferredoxin-NADP+ reductase catalyzes the reversible conversion of reduced ferredoxin to oxidized ferredoxin during photosynthesis. Ferredoxin-NADP(H) reductase constitutes a family of hydrophilic FAD-containing monomeric enzymes that deliver NADPH or low potential one-electron donors to redox-based metabolisms in plastids, mitochondria, and bacteria.

General description

Ferredoxin-NADP+ Reductase is a ferredoxin-soluble partner with a molar ratio to PSI of 0.9 and 3.

Other Notes

One unit will reduce 1.0 millimole of cytochrome C per min at pH 7.5 at 25 °C in the presence of spinach ferredoxin and NADP.

Application

Ferredoxin-NADP+ Reductase from Spinacia oleracea (spinach) has been used to test the effect of potential protein partners on the activity of the glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (GAPDH)−CP12 preparation. It has also been used in standard assay conditions for phycocyanobilin:ferredoxin oxidoreductase (PcyA) enzyme assay.
Ferredoxin-NADP+ Reductase was used in in vitro ferredoxin-dependent desaturation of fatty acids in cyanobacterial thylakoid membranes. It was also used to regulate glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase.

To adapt to different light intensities, photosynthetic organisms manipulate the flow of electrons through several alternative pathways at the thylakoid membrane. The enzyme ferredoxin:NADP(+) reductase (FNR) has the potential to regulate this electron partitioning because it is integral to most

Plasmodium falciparum ferredoxin-NADP(+) reductase (FNR) is a FAD-containing enzyme that, in addition to be a promising target of novel antimalarial drugs, represents an excellent model of plant-type FNRs. The cofactor specificity of FNRs depends on differences in both k(cat) and
