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.

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 ...

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

Ferredoxin reductase is critical for p53-dependent tumor suppression via iron regulatory protein 2
Genes & Development, 2017 In this study, Chen and colleagues investigated the biological function of ferredoxin reductase (FDXR), a target of p53. They generated a Fdxr-deficient mouse model and found that the signal from FDXR to iron homeostasis and the p53 pathway was ...
