Ferredoxin—NAD( ) Reductase
In enzymology, a ferredoxin–NAD+ reductase () is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reaction: :reduced ferredoxin + NAD+ \rightleftharpoons oxidized ferredoxin + NADH + H+ Thus, the two substrates of this enzyme are reduced ferredoxin and NAD+, whereas its 3 products are oxidized ferredoxin, NADH, and H+. This enzyme participates in fatty acid metabolism. This enzyme belongs to the family of oxidoreductases, specifically those acting on iron-sulfur proteins as donor with NAD+ or NADP+ as acceptor. The systematic name of this enzyme is ferredoxin:NAD+ oxidoreductase. There are a variety of names in common use: *ferredoxin–nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide reductase *ferredoxin reductase *NAD+-ferredoxin reductase *ferredoxin–NAD+ reductase *ferredoxin–linked NAD+ reductase *ferredoxin–NAD reductase When NAD molecule is in its reduced form, the enzyme is referred to as: *NADH-ferredoxin oxidoreductase *reduced nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide-ferredoxin *NADH ...
