Published in 2018 at "Biotechnology and Bioengineering"

DOI: 10.1002/bit.26805

Abstract: To boost aldehyde deformylating oxygenase (ADO) activity in a Cupriavidus necator strain expressing a synthetic alkane pathway, the expression of two ferredoxin–ferredoxin reductase systems was tested. The genes of a native fd/FNR‐like system were identified… read more here.

Published in 2017 at "Photosynthesis Research"

DOI: 10.1007/s11120-017-0409-4

Abstract: Ferredoxins are soluble iron sulphur proteins which function as electron donors in a number of metabolic pathways in a broad range of organisms. In photosynthetic organisms, PETF, or ferredoxin 1 (FDX1), is the most studied… read more here.

Published in 2021 at "Biochemical and biophysical research communications"

DOI: 10.1016/j.bbrc.2021.09.008

Abstract: The protozoan Plasmodium falciparum is the main aetiological agent of tropical malaria. Characteristic of the phylum is the presence of a plastid-like organelle which hosts several homologs of plant proteins, including a ferredoxin (PfFd) and… read more here.

Published in 2018 at "Journal of the American Chemical Society"

DOI: 10.1021/jacs.7b11056

Abstract: Cytochrome P450 (CYP) monooxygenases catalyze the oxidation of chemically inert carbon-hydrogen bonds in diverse endogenous and exogenous organic compounds by atmospheric oxygen. This C-H bond oxy-functionalization activity has huge potential in biotechnological applications. Class I… read more here.

Published in 2018 at "Nature Plants"

DOI: 10.1038/s41477-018-0130-0

Abstract: Photosystem I (PSI), a large protein complex located in the thylakoid membrane, mediates the final step in light-driven electron transfer to the stromal electron carrier protein ferredoxin (Fd). Here, we report the first structural description… read more here.

Published in 2022 at "Antioxidants"

DOI: 10.3390/antiox11020273

Abstract: FNR and ferredoxin constitute a redox cascade, which provides reducing power in the plastid of malaria parasites. Recently, mutation of ferredoxin (D97Y) was reported to be strongly related to the parasite’s resistance to the front-line… read more here.

Published in 2022 at "Antioxidants"

DOI: 10.3390/antiox11030537

Abstract: Plastidic ferredoxin-NADP+ reductase (FNR) transfers two electrons from two ferredoxin or flavodoxin molecules to NADP+, generating NADPH. The forces holding the Anabaena FNR:NADP+ complex were analyzed by dynamic force spectroscopy, using WT FNR and three… read more here.

Published in 2022 at "Molecules"

DOI: 10.3390/molecules27113547

Abstract: Superfolds are folds commonly observed among evolutionarily unrelated multiple superfamilies of proteins. Since discovering superfolds almost two decades ago, structural rules distinguishing superfolds from the other ordinary folds have been explored but remained elusive. Here,… read more here.
