A hydrogen bond network in the active site of Anabaena ferredoxin-NADP + reductase modulates its catalytic efficiency
(Elsevier B.V., 2014)
Ferredoxin-nicotinamide-adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NADP+) reductase (FNR) catalyses the production of reduced nicotinamide-adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NADPH) in photosynthetic organisms, where its flavin adenine ...

External loops at the ferredoxin-NADP+ reductase protein-partner binding cavity contribute to substrates allocation
(Elsevier, 2014)
Ferredoxin-NADP+ reductase (FNR) is the structural prototype of a family of FAD-containing reductases that catalyze electron transfer between low potential proteins and NAD(P)+/H, and that display a two-domain arrangement ...

Electron Transfer Pathways and Dynamics of Chloroplast NADPH-dependent Thioredoxin Reductase C (NTRC)
(American Society for Biochemistry and Molecular Biology, 2012)
NADPH-dependent thioredoxin reductases (NTRs) contain a flavin cofactor and a disulfide as redox-active groups. The catalytic mechanism of standard NTR involves a large conformational change between two configurations. ...

Communication between L–galactono–1,4–lactone dehydrogenase and cytochrome c
(Wiley: FEBS Journal, 2013-02-25)
l‐galactono‐1,4‐lactone dehydrogenase (GALDH) catalyzes the terminal step of vitamin C biosynthesis in plant mitochondria. Here we investigated the communication between Arabidopsis thaliana GALDH and its natural electron ...

The photosynthetic cytochrome c550 from the diatom Phaeodactylum tricornutum
(Springer Verlag, 2016)
The photosynthetic cytochrome c550 from the marine diatom Phaeodactylum tricornutum has been purified and characterized. Cytochrome c550 is mostly obtained from the soluble cell extract in relatively large amounts. In ...

Structural and Functional Analysis of Novel Human Cytochrome c Targets in Apoptosis
(American Society for Biochemistry and Molecular Biology, 2014)
Since the first description of apoptosis four decades ago, great efforts have been made to elucidate, both in vivo and in vitro, the molecular mechanisms involved in its regulation. Although the role of cytochrome c during ...

Molecular recognition in the interaction of chloroplast 2-Cys peroxiredoxin with NADPH-thioredoxin reductase C (NTRC) and thioredoxin x
(Elsevier, 2014)
In addition to the standard NADPH thioredoxin reductases (NTRs), plants hold a plastidic NTR (NTRC), with a thioredoxin module fused at the C-terminus. NTRC is an efficient reductant of 2-Cys peroxiredoxins (2-Cys Prxs). ...

New Arabidopsis thaliana cytochrome c partners: A look into the elusive role of cytochrome c in programmed cell death in plants
(American Society for Biochemistry and Molecular Biology, 2013)
Programmed cell death is an event displayed by many different organisms along the evolutionary scale. In plants, programmed cell death is necessary for development and the hypersensitive response to stress or pathogenic ...

Interaction of photosystem I from Phaeodactylum tricornutum with plastocyanins as compared with its native cytochrome c6: Reunion with a lost donor
(Elsevier, 2015)
In the Phaeodactylum tricornutum alga, as in most diatoms, cytochrome c6 is the only electron donor to photosystem I, and thus they lack plastocyanin as an alternative electron carrier. We have investigated, by using ...

Effect of crowding on the electron transfer process from plastocyanin and cytochrome c6 to photosystem I: a comparative study from cyanobacteria to green algae
(Springer Verlag, 2011)
Plastocyanin and cytochrome c 6, the alternate donor proteins to photosystem I, can be acidic, neutral or basic; the role of electrostatics in their interaction with photosystem I vary accordingly for cyanobacteria, algae ...
