Biochemical and structural insights into the cytochrome P450 reductase from Candida tropicalis

Abstract Cytochrome P450 reductases (CPRs) are diflavin oxidoreductases that supply electrons to type II cytochrome P450 monooxygenases (CYPs). In addition, it can also reduce other proteins and molecules, including cytochrome c, ferricyanide, and different drugs. Although various CPRs have been fun...
