Iron-cytochrome-c reductase
- Iron-cytochrome-c reductase
In enzymology, an iron---cytochrome-c reductase (EC number|1.9.99.1) is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reaction
:ferrocytochrome c + Fe3+ ferricytochrome c + Fe2+
Thus, the two substrates of this enzyme are ferrocytochrome c and Fe3+, whereas its two products are ferricytochrome c and Fe2+.
This enzyme belongs to the family of oxidoreductases, specifically those acting on a heme group of donors with other acceptors. The systematic name of this enzyme class is ferrocytochrome-c:Fe3+ oxidoreductase. This enzyme is also called iron-cytochrome c reductase. It employs one cofactor, iron.
