Reaction: (1) 2 reduced [2Fe-2S] ferredoxin + NAD+ + H+ = 2 oxidized [2Fe-2S] ferredoxin + NADH
(2) reduced 2[4Fe-4S] ferredoxin + NAD+ + H+ = oxidized 2[4Fe-4S] ferredoxin + NADH
Glossary: ferredoxin
Other name(s): ferredoxin-nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide reductase; ferredoxin reductase; NAD+-ferredoxin reductase; NADH-ferredoxin oxidoreductase; reductase, reduced nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide-ferredoxin; ferredoxin-NAD+ reductase; NADH-ferredoxin reductase; NADH2-ferredoxin oxidoreductase; NADH flavodoxin oxidoreductase; NADH-ferredoxinNAP reductase (component of naphthalene dioxygenase multicomponent enzyme system); ferredoxin-linked NAD+ reductase; NADH-ferredoxinTOL reductase (component of toluene dioxygenase); ferredoxin—NAD reductase
Systematic name: ferredoxin:NAD+ oxidoreductase
Comments: Contains FAD. Reaction (1) is written for a [2Fe-2S] ferredoxin, which is characteristic of some mono- and dioxygenase systems. The alternative reaction (2) is written for a 2[4Fe-4S] ferredoxin, which transfers two electrons, and occurs in metabolism of anaerobic bacteria.
