ferredoxin

ferredoxin
fer·re·dox·in .fer-ə-'däk-sən n any of a group of iron-containing plant proteins that function as electron carriers in photosynthetic organisms and in some anaerobic bacteria

* * *

fer·re·dox·in (fer″ə-dokґsin) a nonheme iron-containing protein, also having a high sulfide content and a very low redox potential; the ferredoxins participate in electron transport in photosynthesis, nitrogen fixation, and various other biological processes.
