Caffeyl-CoA reductase-Etf complex subunit CarC

UniProtKB accession:  H6LGM6

Grouped By:  Matching UniProtKB accession

UniProtKB description:  The Caffeyl-CoA reductase-Etf complex catalyzes the reduction of caffeyl-CoA to yield hydrocaffeyl-CoA. It couples the endergonic ferredoxin reduction with NADH as reductant to the exergonic reduction of caffeoyl-CoA with the same reductant. It uses the mechanism of electron bifurcation to overcome the steep energy barrier in ferredoxin reduction. Also reduces 4-coumaroyl-CoA and feruloyl-CoA.
