FAD reductase (NADH)
Ec Number:1.5.1.37

FAD reductase (NADH) (NADH-FAD reductase, NADH-dependent FAD reductase) is an enzyme with systematic name FADH2:NAD+ oxidoreductase.[1] This enzyme catalyses the following chemical reaction

FADH2 + NAD+

\rightleftharpoons

FAD + NADH + H+

The enzyme from Burkholderia phenoliruptrix has a preference for FAD.
