Characterisation of components and mechanisms involved in redox-regulation of protein import into chloroplasts [PDF]
The vast majority of chloroplast proteins is encoded in the nucleus and thus has to be posttranslationally imported into the organelle, a process that is facilitated by two multimeric protein machineries, the Toc and Tic complexes (translocon at the ...

Reduced nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NADPH) is a crucial cofactor in metabolic networks. The efficient regeneration of NADPH is one of the limiting factors for productivity in biotransformation processes.

A Novel Type II NAD+-Specific Isocitrate Dehydrogenase from the Marine Bacterium Congregibacter litoralis KT71. [PDF]
In most living organisms, isocitrate dehydrogenases (IDHs) convert isocitrate into ɑ-ketoglutarate (ɑ-KG). Phylogenetic analyses divide the IDH protein family into two subgroups: types I and II. Based on cofactor usage, IDHs are either NAD+-specific (NAD-

Complex‐Forming Properties of Spinach NADP+ Reductase with Ferredoxin, Ferrocyanide and NADP+ [PDF]
The flavoprotein NADP+ reductase from spinach chloroplasts may form a ternary complex with one molecule of NADP+ and one molecule of ferredoxin. Spectroscopic titration studies show that the NADP+ binding site and the ferredoxin binding site are totally independent, that is previous binding of ferredoxin does not modify binding of NADP+, and conversely.

Cytosolic Isocitrate Dehydrogenase from Arabidopsis thaliana Is Regulated by Glutathionylation
NADP-dependent (Nicotinamide Adénine Dinucléotide Phosphate-dependent) isocitrate dehydrogenases (NADP-ICDH) are metabolic enzymes involved in 2-oxoglutarate biosynthesis, but they also supply cells with NADPH. Different NADP-ICDH genes are

Stereospecificity of cinnamyl alcohol dehydrogenase and synthesis of stereospecifically labelled coniferyl alcohol [PDF]
Using horse liver alcohol dehydrogenase, stereospecifically tritiated (R)- and (S)-(γ-3H)-coniferyl alcohol was synthesized. Using both of these substrates it was demonstrated that cinnamyl alcohol dehydrogenase from lignifying Forsythia tissue ...

Association of ferredoxin-NADP+ reductase with NADP(H) specificity and oxidation-reduction properties. [PDF]
The equilibrium properties of the NADP+ binding site of ferredoxin-NADP+ reductase (FNR, or Fd-NADP+ reductase) were examined with regard to specificity in binding, and with regard to the oxidation-reduction properties of the FNR.NADP+ complex. With the exception of 3'-NADP+, only adenosine nucleotides with a 2'-adenosyl phosphate bound to Fd-NADP ...
