Reaction: NADH + H+ + 2 NADP+ + 2 reduced ferredoxin [iron-sulfur] cluster = NAD+ + 2 NADPH + 2 oxidized ferredoxin [iron-sulfur] cluster
Other name(s): NADH-dependent reduced ferredoxin:NADP+ oxidoreductase; Nfn; nfnAB (gene names)
Systematic name: NADH:NADP+, ferredoxin oxidoreductase
Comments: The iron-sulfur flavoprotein complex, isolated from the bacterium Clostridium kluyveri, couples the exergonic reduction of NADP+ with reduced ferredoxin and the endergonic reduction of NADP+ with NADH.
