EC 1.3.7.3 Details
EC number
1.3.7.3
Accepted name
phycoerythrobilin:ferredoxin oxidoreductase
Reaction
(3Z)-phycoerythrobilin + oxidized ferredoxin = 15,16-dihydrobiliverdin + reduced ferredoxin
Other name(s)
PebB
Systematic name
(3Z)-phycoerythrobilin:ferredoxin oxidoreductase
CAS registry number
347401-21-2
Comment
Catalyses the two-electron reduction of the C2 and C31 diene system of 15,16-dihydrobiliverdin. Specific for 15,16-dihydrobiliverdin. It has been proposed that this enzyme and EC 1.3.7.2, 15,16-dihydrobiliverdin:ferredoxin oxidoreductase, function as a dual enzyme complex in the conversion of biliverdin IXα to phycoerythrobilin.
