Competition between C-terminal Tyrosine and Nicotinamide Modulates Pyridine Nucleotide Affinity and Specificity in Plant Ferredoxin-NADP+ Reductase [PDF]
Journal of Biological Chemistry, 2000 Chloroplast ferredoxin-NADP+reductase has a 32,000-fold preference for NADPH over NADH, consistent with its main physiological role of NADP+ photoreduction for de novo carbohydrate biosynthesis. Although it is distant from the 2′-phosphoryl group of NADP+

A STD-NMR study of the interaction of the Anabaena ferredoxin-NADP+ reductase with the coenzyme. [PDF]
Molecules, 2014 Ferredoxin-NADP+ reductase (FNR) catalyzes the electron transfer from ferredoxin to NADP+ via its flavin FAD cofactor. To get further insights in the architecture of the transient complexes produced during the hydride transfer event between the enzyme ...

Crystal Structure of Paprika Ferredoxin-NADP+Reductase [PDF]
Journal of Biological Chemistry, 2001 cDNA of Capsicum annuum Yolo Wonder (paprika) has been prepared from total cellular RNA, and the complete gene encoding paprika ferredoxin-NADP(+) reductase (pFNR) precursor was sequenced and cloned from this cDNA. Fusion to a T7 promoter allowed expression in Escherichia coli.

Structural and functional diversity of ferredoxin-NADP+ reductases [PDF]
Archives of Biochemistry and Biophysics, 2008 Although all ferredoxin-NADP(+) reductases (FNRs) catalyze the same reaction, i.e. the transfer of reducing equivalents between NADP(H) and ferredoxin, they belong to two unrelated families of proteins: the plant-type and the glutathione reductase-type of FNRs.
