Methods are described for the simultaneous isolation of ferredoxin-NADP+ reductase, ferredoxin and flavodoxin from large quantities of the cyanobacterium Anabaena PCC 7119 allowing the use of a single batch of cells. The ultraviolet-visible spectra and the extinction coefficients of ferredoxin-NADP+ reductase and ferredoxin were determined. The purification procedure also yields enriched fractions of phycobiliproteins and cytochrome c553.

D005418	Flavodoxin	A low-molecular-weight (16,000) iron-free flavoprotein containing one molecule of flavin mononucleotide (FMN) and isolated from bacteria grown on an iron-deficient medium. It can replace ferredoxin in all the electron-transfer functions in which the latter is known to serve in bacterial cells.
D013056	Spectrophotometry, Ultraviolet	Determination of the spectra of ultraviolet absorption by specific molecules in gases or liquids, for example Cl2, SO2, NO2, CS2, ozone, mercury vapor, and various unsaturated compounds.

D017033	Anabaena	A genus of CYANOBACTERIA consisting of trichomes that are untapered with conspicuous constrictions at cross-walls. A firm individual sheath is absent, but a soft covering is often present. Many species are known worldwide as major components of freshwater PLANKTON and also of many saline lakes. The species DOLICHOSPERMUM FLOS-AQUAE is responsible for acute poisonings of various animals.
