Reaction: reduced plastocyanin + oxidized ferredoxin + hν = oxidized plastocyanin + reduced ferredoxin
Systematic name: plastocyanin:ferredoxin oxidoreductase (light-dependent)
Comments: Contains chlorophyll, phylloquinones, carotenoids and [4Fe-4S] clusters. Cytochrome c6 can act as an alternative electron donor, and flavodoxin as an alternative acceptor in some species.
