Iron—cytochrome-c reductase

In enzymology, an iron—cytochrome-c reductase (created 1972 as EC 1.9.99.1, transferred 2014 to EC 1.9.98.1) is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reaction Thus, the two substrates of this enzyme are ferrocytochrome c and Fe3+, whereas its two products are ferricytochrome c and Fe2+.

This enzyme belongs to the family of oxidoreductases, specifically those acting on a heme group of donors with other acceptors.

The systematic name of this enzyme class is ferrocytochrome-c:Fe3+ oxidoreductase.

This enzyme is part of the electron transport system of Ferrobacillus ferrooxidans.
