Aldehyde ferredoxin oxidoreductase

Aldehyde ferredoxin oxidoreductase

In enzymology, an aldehyde ferredoxin oxidoreductase (EC number|1.2.7.5) is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reaction

:an aldehyde + H2O + 2 oxidized ferredoxin ightleftharpoons an acid + 2 H+ + 2 reduced ferredoxin

The 3 substrates of this enzyme are aldehyde, H2O, and oxidized ferredoxin, whereas its 3 products are acid, H+, and reduced ferredoxin.

This enzyme belongs to the family of oxidoreductases, specifically those acting on the aldehyde or oxo group of donor with an iron-sulfur protein as acceptor. The systematic name of this enzyme class is aldehyde:ferredoxin oxidoreductase. This enzyme is also called AOR.
