EC 1.3.7.5                  Enzyme                                 

Name phycocyanobilin:ferredoxin oxidoreductase
Class Oxidoreductases;
Acting on the CH-CH group of donors;
With an iron-sulfur protein as acceptor
BRITE hierarchy
Sysname (3Z)-phycocyanobilin:ferredoxin oxidoreductase
Reaction(IUBMB) (3Z)-phycocyanobilin + oxidized ferredoxin = biliverdin IXalpha +
reduced ferredoxin [RN:R05817]
Reaction(KEGG) R05817
Show
Substrate (3Z)-phycocyanobilin [CPD:C05786];
oxidized ferredoxin [CPD:C00139]
Product biliverdin IXalpha;
reduced ferredoxin [CPD:C00138]
Comment Catalyses the four-electron reduction of biliverdin IXalpha
(2-electron reduction at both the A and D rings). Reaction proceeds
via an isolatable 2-electron intermediate,
181,182-dihydrobiliverdin. Flavodoxins can be used instead of
ferredoxin.The direct conversion of biliverdin IXalpha (BV) to
(3Z)-phycocyanolbilin (PCB) in the cyanobacteria Synechocystis sp
PCC 6803, Anabaena sp PCC7120 and Nostoc punctiforme is in contrast
to the proposed pathways of PCB biosynthesis in the red alga
Cyanidium caldarium, which involves (3Z)-phycoerythrobilin (PEB) as
an intermediate [2] and in the green alga Mesotaenium caldariorum,
in which PCB is an isolable intermediate.
