NADH-rubredoxin oxidoreductase

UniProtKB accession:  Q9AL95

Grouped By:  Matching UniProtKB accession

UniProtKB description:  Catalyzes the NADH-dependent reduction of rubredoxin (Rd). NADPH is a very poor electron donor compared to NADH. Functions as an intermediate component in the electron transfer chain: NADH->NROR->Rd->FprA1/2. Also functions as an intermediate component in the electron transfer chains from NADH to revRbr and Dfx. Therefore, is a key electron carrier in an efficient multienzyme complex that can scavenge O(2) and reactive oxygen species (ROS), and thus plays an important role in the oxidative stress defense system in C.acetobutylicum, an obligate anaerobic bacterium.
