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.

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 ...
