Inter-Organelle NAD Metabolism Underpinning Light Responsive NADP Dynamics in Plants
Frontiers in Plant Science, 2019 Upon illumination, photosystem I in chloroplasts catalyzes light-driven electron transport from plastocyanin to ferredoxin, followed by the reduction of NADP+ to NADPH by ferredoxin:NADP+ reductase for CO2 fixation.

Mechanistic Insight into the Enzymatic Reduction of Truncated Hemoglobin N of Mycobacterium tuberculosis: role of the CD loop and pre-A Motif in electron cycling [PDF]
, 2014 Background: The HbN of Mycobacterium tuberculosis carries a potent nitric-oxide dioxygenase activity despite lacking a reductase domain. Results: The NADH-ferredoxin reductase system acts as an efficient partner for the reduction of HbN.

Antagonistic antimalarial properties of a methoxyamino chalcone derivative and 3-hydroxypyridinones in combination with dihydroartemisinin against Plasmodium falciparum [PDF]
PeerJ, 2023 Background The spread of artemisinin (ART)-resistant Plasmodium falciparum threatens the control of malaria. Mutations in the propeller domains of P. falciparum Kelch13 (k13) are strongly associated with ART resistance.

The NADPH-Dependent thioredoxin reductase C-2-Cys peroxiredoxin redox system modulates the activity of thioredoxin x in arabidopsis chloroplasts [PDF]
, 2018 The chloroplast redox network is composed of a complex set of thioredoxins (Trxs), reduced by ferredoxin (Fdx) via a Fdx-dependent Trx reductase (FTR), and an NADPH-dependent Trx reductase with a joint Trx domain, NTRC, which efficiently reduces 2-Cys ...

Mechanism of cyanobacterial ferredoxin-dependent flavin thioredoxin reductase reveals thiolate-FAD charge transfer and catalytic asymmetry in a homodimer. [PDF]
FEBS JFerredoxin‐dependent flavin thioredoxin reductases (FFTRs) regenerate reduced thioredoxin, sustaining dithiol–disulfide exchange reactions that regulate protein activity in select organisms. In cyanobacterial FFTRs, we describe the formation of a thiolate–flavin charge transfer complex, asynchronous reduction of the two FAD cofactors within the ...
