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.

The genetic basis of energy conservation in the sulfate-reducing bacterium Desulfovibrio alaskensis G20. [PDF]
, 2014 Sulfate-reducing bacteria play major roles in the global carbon and sulfur cycles, but it remains unclear how reducing sulfate yields energy. To determine the genetic basis of energy conservation, we measured the fitness of thousands of pooled mutants of

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

NsrR from Streptomyces coelicolor is a nitric oxide-sensing [4Fe-4S] cluster protein with a specialized regulatory function [PDF]
, 2015 The Rrf2 family transcription factor NsrR controls expression of genes in a wide range of bacteria in response to nitric oxide (NO). The precise form of the NO-sensing module of NsrR is the subject of controversy because NsrR proteins containing either ...

Ferredoxin binding site on ferredoxin: NADP+ reductase [PDF]
European Journal of Biochemistry, 1993 The chloroplast enzyme ferredoxin:NADP+ reductase (FNR) catalyzes the reduction of NADP+ by ferredoxin (Fd). FNR and Fd form a 1:1 complex that is stabilized by electrostatic interactions between acidic residues of Fd and basic residues of FNR. To localize lysine residues at the Fd binding site of FNR, the FNR:Fd complex (both proteins from spinach ...

Variable protection against experimental broiler necrotic enteritis after immunisation with the C-terminal fragment of Clostridium perfringens alpha-toxin and a non-toxic NetB variant [PDF]
, 2016 Necrotic enteritis toxin B (NetB) is a pore-forming toxin produced by Clostridium perfringens and has been shown to play a key role in avian necrotic enteritis (NE), a disease causing significant costs to the poultry production industry worldwide.
