Gene nameBLVRA
Protein nameBiliverdin reductase A
Biliverdin reductase A (BVR A) (EC 1.3.1.24) (Biliverdin-IX alpha-reductase)
SynonymsBVR
BLVR
DescriptionFUNCTION: Reduces the gamma-methene bridge of the open tetrapyrrole, biliverdin IX alpha, to bilirubin with the concomitant oxidation of a NADH or NADPH cofactor . Uses the reactants NADH or NADPH depending on the pH; NADH is used at the acidic pH range (6-6.9) and NADPH at the alkaline range (8.5-8.7) . NADPH, however, is the probable reactant in biological systems . .
