Ferric-chelate reductase (NADPH)

Ferric-chelate reductase (NADPH) (, ferric chelate reductase, iron chelate reductase, NADPH:Fe3+-EDTA reductase, NADPH-dependent ferric reductase, yqjH (gene)) is an enzyme with systematic name Fe(II):NADP+ oxidoreductase. This enzyme catalyses the following chemical reaction


 * 2 Fe(II) + 2 apo-siderophore + NADP+ + H+ $$\rightleftharpoons$$ 2 Fe(III)-siderophore + NADPH

Ferric-chelate reductase contains FAD.
