Abstract excerpt
Mutations of the conserved residue Glu-92 to lysine, glutamine, and alanine have been performed in the recombinant ferredoxin I of spinach leaves. The purified ferredoxin mutants were found twice as active with respect to wild-type protein in the NADPH-cytochrome c reductase reaction catalyzed by ferredoxin-NADP+ reductase in the presence of ferredoxin. Cyclic voltammetry and EPR measurements showed that the...
