Indolepyruvate ferredoxin oxidoreductase
In enzymology, indolepyruvate ferredoxin oxidoreductase is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reaction
The three substrates of this enzyme are indole-3-pyruvic acid, coenzyme A, and oxidized ferredoxin. Its products are S-2-acetyl-CoA, carbon dioxide, 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 3-pyruvate:ferredoxin oxidoreductase . Other names in common use include 3-pyruvate synthase , and IOR.
