Enzyme Commission Number
EC 1.3.7.4
Product Overview
High-quality enzyme products.
Well-established quality management system.
Reaction
(3Z)-phytochromobilin + 2 oxidized ferredoxin = biliverdin IXα + 2 reduced ferredoxin
Systematic Name
(3Z)-phytochromobilin:ferredoxin oxidoreductase
Function
Catalyses the two-electron reduction of biliverdin IXα. Can use [2Fe-2S] ferredoxins from a number of sources as acceptor but not the [4Fe-4S] ferredoxin from Clostridium pasteurianum. The isomerization of (3Z)-phytochromobilin to (3E)-phytochromobilin is thought to occur prior to covalent attachment to apophytochrome in the plant cell cytoplasm. Flavodoxins can be used instead of ferredoxin.
Other name
HY2; PPhi B synthase; phytochromobilin synthase
