Ferredoxin is a pivotal iron–sulphur protein that functions as an electron carrier in the photosynthetic electron transport chain. Within chloroplasts, photosystem I reduces ferredoxin, which in turn ...
Ferredoxin-glutamate synthase (EC 1.4.7.1) from Chlamydomonas reinhardii has been purified to electrophoretic homogeneity, with a specific activity of 10.4 units mg-1 protein, by a method which ...
The hydrogen atoms of [4Fe-4S] type ferredoxin, one of the electron carriers, have been visualized and both experiments and calculations have revealed the mechanisms that control the redox potential.
The biosynthesis of iron-sulfur clusters is a highly regulated process involving several proteins. Among them, so-called scaffold proteins play pivotal roles in both the assembly and delivery of ...
Lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD) is a subtype of non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) that represents around 40% of all lung tumors. Despite therapeutic advancements, LUAD remains a leading cause of ...
A group of researchers in Japan has revealed, for the first time, a mechanism for controlling the potential of an “electron carrier” protein in the redox reaction that all organisms need to obtain ...
