In enzymology, a cyanocobalamin reductase (cyanide-eliminating) (EC 1.16.1.6) is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reaction

cob(I)alamin + cyanide + NADP+ cyanocob(III)alamin + NADPH + H+

The 3 substrates of this enzyme are cob(I)alamin, cyanide, and NADP+, whereas its 3 products are cyanocob(III)alamin, NADPH, and H+.

This enzyme belongs to the family of oxidoreductases, specifically those that oxidize metal ions and use NAD+ or NADP+ as an electron acceptor (for that oxidization reaction). The systematic name of this enzyme class is cob(I)alamin, cyanide:NADP+ oxidoreductase. Other names in common use include cyanocobalamin reductase, cyanocobalamin reductase (NADPH, cyanide-eliminating), cyanocobalamin reductase (NADPH, CN-eliminating), and NADPH:cyanocob(III)alamin oxidoreductase (cyanide-eliminating). This enzyme participates in porphyrin and chlorophyll metabolism. It uses one cofactor, FAD.

In biochemistry, an oxidoreductase is an enzyme that catalyzes the transfer of electrons from one molecule, the reductant, also called the electron donor, to another, the oxidant, also called the electron acceptor. This group of enzymes usually utilizes NADP+ or NAD+ as cofactors. Transmembrane oxidoreductases create electron transport chains in bacteria, chloroplasts and mitochondria, including respiratory complexes I, II and III. Some others can associate with biological membranes as peripheral membrane proteins or be anchored to the membranes through a single transmembrane helix.

Flavin reductase a class of enzymes. There are a variety of flavin reductases, which bind free flavins and through hydrogen bonding, catalyze the reduction of these molecules to a reduced flavin. Riboflavin, or vitamin B, and flavin mononucleotide are two of the most well known flavins in the body and are used in a variety of processes which include metabolism of fat and ketones and the reduction of methemoglobin in erythrocytes. Flavin reductases are similar and often confused for ferric reductases because of their similar catalytic mechanism and structures.
