IUBMB Comments An iron-sulfur protein found in plant chloroplasts and cyanobacteria that contains a [4Fe-4S] cluster . Forms part of an alternative non-mevalonate pathway for isoprenoid biosynthesis. Bacteria have a similar enzyme that uses flavodoxin rather than ferredoxin (cf . EC 1.17.7.3 ). The enzyme from the plant Arabidopsis thaliana is active with photoreduced 5-deazaflavin but not with flavodoxin .
The expected taxonomic range for this enzyme is: Bacteria, Eukaryota, Archaea

An iron-sulfur protein found in plant chloroplasts and cyanobacteria that contains a [4Fe-4S] cluster [1]. Forms part of an alternative non-mevalonate pathway for isoprenoid biosynthesis. Bacteria have a similar enzyme that uses flavodoxin rather than ferredoxin (cf. EC 1.17.7.3). The enzyme from the plant Arabidopsis thaliana is active with photoreduced 5-deazaflavin but not with flavodoxin [1].
