Steroidogenic electron-transfer factors and their diseases [PDF]
Annals of Pediatric Endocrinology & Metabolism, 2021 Most steroidogenesis disorders are caused by mutations in genes encoding the steroidogenic enzymes, but work in the past 20 years has identified related disorders caused by mutations in the genes encoding the cofactors that transport electrons from NADPH

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2018 Flavin-based electron bifurcation is a newly discovered mechanism, by which a hydride electron pair from NAD(P)H, coenzyme F420H2, H2, or formate is split by flavoproteins into one-electron with a more negative reduction potential and one with a more ...

Aerobic Barley Mg-protoporphyrin IX Monomethyl Ester Cyclase is Powered by Electrons from Ferredoxin
Plants, 2020 Chlorophyll is the light-harvesting molecule central to the process of photosynthesis. Chlorophyll is synthesized through 15 enzymatic steps. Most of the reactions have been characterized using recombinant proteins.

Ferredoxin Gene Mutation in Iranian Trichomonas vaginalis Isolates
Iranian Journal of Parasitology, 2013 Background: Trichomonas vaginalis causes trichomoniasis and metronidazole is its chosen drug for treatment. Ferredoxin has role in electron transport and carbohydrate metabolism and the conversion of an inactive form of metronidazole (CO) to its active ...

NADP(H) allosterically regulates the interaction between ferredoxin and ferredoxin‐NADP+ reductase
FEBS Open Bio, 2019 Ferredoxin‐NADP+ reductase (FNR) in plants receives electrons from ferredoxin (Fd) at the end of the photosynthetic electron transfer chain and converts NADP+ to NADPH. The interaction between Fd and FNR in plants was previously shown to be attenuated by

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2020 Ferredoxins are iron–sulfur proteins essential for a wide range of organisms because they are an electron transfer mediator involved in multiple metabolic pathways. In phytoplankton, these proteins are active in the mature chloroplasts, but the petF gene,

Heterogeneity of adrenocortical ferredoxin [PDF]
FEBS Letters, 1986 Bovine adrenocortical ferredoxin (adreno‐ferredoxin) was purified from adrenocortical mitochondria by an improved method that included hydrophobic chromatography on Toyopearl gels. The purified ferredoxin was electrophoretically homogeneous. It was further separated into five fractions by hydrophobic chromatography on a TSK‐gel phenyl‐5PW column with a

Heterocyst Thylakoid Bioenergetics
Life, 2019 Heterocysts are specialized cells that differentiate in the filaments of heterocystous cyanobacteria. Their role is to maintain a microoxic environment for the nitrogenase enzyme during diazotrophic growth.

eLife, 2021 During photosynthesis, electron transport is necessary for carbon assimilation and must be regulated to minimize free radical damage. There is a longstanding controversy over the role of a critical enzyme in this process (ferredoxin:NADP(H ...
