FMN reductase (NADPH)

Enzyme involved in redox reactions


FMN reductase (NADPH) (EC 1.5.1.38, FRP, flavin reductase P, SsuE) is an enzyme with systematic name FMNH2:NADP+ oxidoreductase.[1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8] This enzyme catalyses the following chemical reaction:

FMNH2 + NADP+ FMN + NADPH + H+

The enzymes from bioluminescent bacteria contain FMN.
