Other name(s): isopentenyl-diphosphate:NADP+ oxidoreductase; LytB; (E)-4-hydroxy-3-methylbut-2-en-1-yl diphosphate reductase; HMBPP reductase; IspH; LytB/IspH

Systematic name: isopentenyl-diphosphate:NAD(P)+ oxidoreductase

Comments: An iron-sulfur protein that contains either a [3Fe-4S](+) [6] or a [4Fe-4S] [5] cluster. This enzyme comprises a system in which ferredoxin is first reduced and subsequently reoxidized by an NAD(P)+-dependent reductase. This is the last enzyme in the non-mevalonate pathway for isoprenoid biosynthesis. This pathway, also known as the 1-deoxy-D-xylulose 5-phosphate (DOXP) or as the 2-C-methyl-D-erythritol-4-phosphate (MEP) pathway, is found in most bacteria and in plant chloroplasts. The enzyme acts in the reverse direction, producing a 5:1 mixture of isopentenyl diphosphate and dimethyallyl diphosphate.

EC 1.17.1.3

Accepted name: leucoanthocyanidin reductase

Reaction: (2R,3S)-catechin + NADP+ + H2O = 2,3-trans-3,4-cis-leucocyanidin + NADPH + H+

For diagram click here.

Other name(s): leucocyanidin reductase

Systematic name: (2R,3S)-catechin:NADP+ 4-oxidoreductase

Comments: The enzyme catalyses the synthesis of catechin, catechin-4β-ol (leucocyanidin) and the related flavan-3-ols afzelechin and gallocatechin, which are initiating monomers in the synthesis of plant polymeric proanthocyanidins or condensed tannins. While 2,3-trans-3,4-cis-leucocyanidin is the preferred flavan-3,4-diol substrate, 2,3-trans-3,4-cis-leucodelphinidin and 2,3-trans-3,4-cis-leucopelargonidin can also act as substrates, but more slowly. NADH can replace NADPH but is oxidized more slowly.

EC 1.17.1.4

Accepted name: xanthine dehydrogenase

Reaction: xanthine + NAD+ + H2O = urate + NADH + H+

For diagram of reaction click here

Glossary: 4-mercuribenzoate = (4-carboxylatophenyl)mercury

Other name(s): NAD+-xanthine dehydrogenase; xanthine-NAD+ oxidoreductase; xanthine/NAD+ oxidoreductase; xanthine oxidoreductase

Systematic name: xanthine:NAD+ oxidoreductase

Comments: Acts on a variety of purines and aldehydes, including hypoxanthine. The mammalian enzyme can also convert all-trans retinol to all-trans-retinoate, while the substrate is bound to a retinoid-binding protein [14]. The enzyme from eukaryotes contains [2Fe-2S], FAD and a molybdenum centre. The mammalian enzyme predominantly exists as the NAD-dependent dehydrogenase (EC 1.17.1.4). During purification the enzyme is largely converted to an O2-dependent form, xanthine oxidase (EC 1.17.3.2). The conversion can be triggered by several mechanisms, including the oxidation of cysteine thiols to form disulfide bonds [2,6,8,15] [which can be catalysed by EC 1.8.4.7, enzyme-thiol transhydrogenase (glutathione-disulfide) in the presence of glutathione disulfide] or limited proteolysis, which results in irreversible conversion. The conversion can also occur in vivo [2,7,15].

EC 1.17.3.2

Accepted name: xanthine oxidase

Reaction: xanthine + H2O + O2 = urate + H2O2

For diagram of reaction, click here

Glossary: 4-mercuribenzoate = (4-carboxylatophenyl)mercury

Other name(s): hypoxanthine oxidase; hypoxanthine:oxygen oxidoreductase; Schardinger enzyme; xanthine oxidoreductase; hypoxanthine-xanthine oxidase; xanthine:O2 oxidoreductase; xanthine:xanthine oxidase

Systematic name: xanthine:oxygen oxidoreductase

Comments: An iron-molybdenum flavoprotein (FAD) containing [2Fe-2S] centres. Also oxidizes hypoxanthine, some other purines and pterins, and aldehydes, but is distinct from EC 1.2.3.1, aldehyde oxidase. Under some conditions the product is mainly superoxide rather than peroxide: RH + H2O + 2 O2 = ROH + 2 O2.- + 2 H+. The mammalian enzyme predominantly exists as an NAD-dependent dehydrogenase (EC 1.17.1.4, xanthine dehydrogenase). During purification the enzyme is largely converted to the O2-dependent xanthine oxidase form (EC 1.17.3.2). The conversion can be triggered by several mechanisms, including the oxidation of cysteine thiols to form disulfide bonds [4,5,7,10] [which can be catalysed by EC 1.8.4.7, enzyme-thiol transhydrogenase (glutathione-disulfide) in the presence of glutathione disulfide] or limited proteolysis, which results in irreversible conversion. The conversion can also occur in vivo [4,6,10].

EC 1.17.5.1

Accepted name: phenylacetyl-CoA dehydrogenase

Reaction: phenylacetyl-CoA + H2O + 2 quinone = phenylglyoxylyl-CoA + 2 quinol

For diagram of reaction click here.

Other name(s): phenylacetyl-CoA:acceptor oxidoreductase

Systematic name: phenylacetyl-CoA:quinone oxidoreductase

Comments: The enzyme from Thauera aromatica is a membrane-bound molybdenum—iron—sulfur protein. The enzyme is specific for phenylacetyl-CoA as substrate. Phenylacetate, acetyl-CoA, benzoyl-CoA, propanoyl-CoA, crotonyl-CoA, succinyl-CoA and 3-hydroxybenzoyl-CoA cannot act as substrates. The oxygen atom introduced into the product, phenylglyoxylyl-CoA, is derived from water and not molecular oxygen. Duroquinone, menaquinone and 2,6-dichlorophenolindophenol (DCPIP) can act as acceptor, but the likely physiological acceptor is ubiquinone [1]. A second enzyme, EC 3.1.2.25, phenylacetyl-CoA hydrolase, converts the phenylglyoxylyl-CoA formed into phenylglyoxylate.

Systematic name: (E)-4-hydroxy-3-methylbut-2-en-1-yl-diphosphate:oxidized ferredoxin oxidoreductase

Comments: An iron-sulfur protein that contains a [4Fe-4S] cluster [1,2]. Forms, in the reverse direction, part of an alternative non-mevalonate pathway for isoprenoid biosynthesis that is found in most bacteria and in plant chloroplasts [4]. The enzyme from the plant Arabidopsis thaliana is active with photoreduced 5-deazaflavin but not with the flavodoxin/flavodoxin reductase/NADPH system that can be used as an electron donor by Escherichia coli [2]. Metabolites derived from isoprenoids play important roles in systems such as electron transport, photosynthesis, plant defense responses, hormonal regulation of development and membrane fluidity [1].

Systematic name: (25R)-3α,7α,12α-trihydroxy-5β-cholestan-26-oyl-CoA:acceptor 24-oxidoreductase (24R-hydroxylating)

Comments: Requires ATP. The reaction in mammals possibly involves dehydrogenation to give a 24(25)-double bond followed by hydration [1]. However, in amphibians such as the Oriental fire-bellied toad (Bombina orientalis), it is probable that the product is formed via direct hydroxylation of the saturated side chain of (25R)-3α,7α,12α-trihydroxy-5β-cholestan-26-oate and not via hydration of a 24(25) double bond [5]. In microsomes, the free acid is preferred to the coenzyme A ester, whereas in mitochondria, the coenzyme A ester is preferred to the free-acid form of the substrate [1].

EC 1.17.99.5

Accepted name: bile-acid 7α-dehydroxylase

Reaction: (1) deoxycholate + FAD + H2O = cholate + FADH2
(2) lithocholate + FAD + H2O = chenodeoxycholate + FADH2

For diagram click here and mechanism click here.

Glossary: allodeoxycholate = 3α,12α-dihydroxy-5α-cholan-24-oate cholate = 3α,7α,12α-trihydroxy-5β-cholan-24-oate
chenodeoxycholate = 3α,7α-dihydroxy-5β-cholan-24-oate
deoxycholate = 3α,12α-dihydroxy-5β-cholan-24-oate
lithocholate = 3α-hydroxy-5β-cholan-24-oate

Other name(s): cholate 7α-dehydroxylase; 7α-dehydroxylase; bile acid 7-dehydroxylase; deoxycholate:NAD+ oxidoreductase

Systematic name: deoxycholate:FAD oxidoreductase (7α-dehydroxylating)

Comments: Under physiological conditions, the reactions occur in the reverse direction to that shown above. This enzyme is highly specific for bile-acid substrates and requires a free C-24 carboxy group and an unhindered 7α-hydroxy group on the B-ring of the steroid nucleus for activity, as found in cholate and chenodeoxycholate. The reaction is stimulated by the presence of NAD+ but is inhibited by excess NADH. This unusual regulation by the NAD+/NADH ratio is most likely the result of the intermediates being linked at C-24 by an anhydride bond to the 5'-diphosphate of 3'-phospho-ADP [2,5,6]. Allodeoxycholate is also formed as a side-product of the 7α-dehydroxylation of cholate [6]. The enzyme is present in intestinal anaerobic bacteria [6], even though its products are important in mammalian physiology.

For diagram click here.

Systematic name: reduced ferredoxin:dinitrogen oxidoreductase (ATP-hydrolysing)

Comments: Requires Mg2+. It is composed of two proteins that can be separated but are both required for nitrogenase activity. Dinitrogen reductase is a [4Fe-4S] protein, which, with two molecules of ATP and ferredoxin, generates an electron. The electron is transferred to the other protein, dinitrogenase (molybdoferredoxin). Dinitrogenase is a molybdenum-iron protein that reduces dinitrogen in three succesive two-electron reductions from nitrogen to diimine to hydrazine to two molecules of ammonia. The molybdenum may be replaced by vanadium or iron. The reduction is initiated by formation of hydrogen in stoichiometric amounts [2]. Acetylene is reduced to ethylene (but only very slowly to ethane), azide to nitrogen and ammonia, and cyanide to methane and ammonia. In the absence of a suitable substrate, hydrogen is slowly formed. Ferredoxin may be replaced by flavodoxin [see EC 1.19.6.1 nitrogenase (flavodoxin)]. Formerly EC 1.18.2.1.

EC 1.20.4.1 arsenate reductase (glutaredoxin)
EC 1.20.4.2 methylarsonate reductase

EC 1.20.4.3 mycoredoxin


EC 1.20.4.1

Accepted name: arsenate reductase (glutaredoxin)

Reaction: arsenate + glutaredoxin = arsenite + glutaredoxin disulfide + H2O

For diagram of reaction click here.

Systematic name: glutharedoxin:arsenate oxidoreductase

Comments: A molybdoenzyme. The glutaredoxins catalyse glutathione-disulfide oxidoreductions and have a redox-active disulfide/dithiol in the active site (-Cys-Pro-Tyr-Cys-) that forms a disulfide bond in the oxidized form [2, 10]. Glutaredoxins have a binding site for glutathione, which is required to reduce them to the dithiol form [3, 6]. Thioredoxins reduced by NADPH and thioredoxin reductase can act as alternative substrates. The enzyme [1, 4, 7, 9] is part of a system for detoxifying arsenate. Although the arsenite formed is more toxic than arsenate, it can be extruded from some bacteria by EC 3.6.3.16, arsenite-transporting ATPase; in other organisms, arsenite can be methylated by EC 2.1.1.137, arsenite methyltransferase, in a pathway to non-toxic organoarsenical compounds.

Systematic name: [formate C-acetyltransferase]-glycine dihydroflavodoxin:S-adenosyl-L-methionine oxidoreductase (S-adenosyl-L-methionine cleaving)

Comments: An iron-sulfur protein. A single glycine residue in EC 2.3.1.54, formate C-acetyltransferase, is oxidized to the corresponding radical by transfer of H from its CH2 to AdoMet with concomitant cleavage of the latter. The reaction requires Fe2+. The first stage is reduction of the AdoMet to give methionine and the 5'-deoxyadenosin-5'-yl radical, which then abstracts a hydrogen radical from the glycine residue.

Accepted name: tetrachloroethene reductive dehalogenase

Reaction: trichloroethene + chloride + acceptor = tetrachloroethene + reduced acceptor

Glossary entries:
methyl viologen = 1,1'-dimethyl-4,4'-bipyridinium

Other name(s): tetrachloroethene reductase

Systematic name: acceptor:trichloroethene oxidoreductase (chlorinating)

Comments: This enzyme allows the common pollutant tetrachloroethene to support bacterial growth and is responsible for disposal of a number of chlorinated hydrocarbons by this organism. The reaction occurs in the reverse direction. The enzyme also reduces trichloroethene to dichloroethene. Although the physiological reductant is unknown, the supply of reductant in some organisms is via reduced menaquinone, itself formed from molecular hydrogen, via EC 1.12.5.1 (hydrogen:quinone oxidoreductase). The enzyme contains a corrinoid and two iron-sulfur clusters. Methyl viologen can act as electron donor.

EC 1.97.1.10

Accepted name: thyroxine 5'-deiodinase

Reaction: 3,5,3'-triiodo-L-thyronine + iodide + A + H+ = L-thyroxine + AH2

Other name(s): diiodothyronine 5'-deiodinase [ambiguous]; iodothyronine 5'-deiodinase; iodothyronine outer ring monodeiodinase; type I iodothyronine deiodinase; type II iodothyronine deiodinase; thyroxine 5-deiodinase [misleading]; L-thyroxine iodohydrolase (reducing)

Systematic name: acceptor:3,5,3'-triiodo-L-thyronine oxidoreductase (iodinating)

Comments: The enzyme activity has only been demonstrated in the direction of 5'-deiodination, which renders the thyroid hormone more active. The enzyme consists of type I and type II enzymes, both containing selenocysteine, but with different kinetics. For the type I enzyme the first reaction is a reductive deiodination converting the -Se-H group of the enzyme into an -Se-I group; the reductant then reconverts this into -Se-H, releasing iodide.

Accepted name: thyroxine 5-deiodinase

Reaction: 3,3',5'-triiodo-L-thyronine + iodide + A + H+ = L-thyroxine + AH2

Other name(s): diiodothyronine 5'-deiodinase[ambiguous]; iodothyronine 5-deiodinase; iodothyronine inner ring monodeiodinase; type III iodothyronine deiodinase

Systematic name: acceptor:3,3',5'-triiodo-L-thyronine oxidoreductase (iodinating)

Comments: The enzyme activity has only been demonstrated in the direction of 5-deiodination. This removal of the 5-iodine, i.e. from the inner ring, largely inactivates the hormone thyroxine.
