In enzymology, a glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (ferredoxin) (EC 1.2.7.6) is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reaction

+ 2 oxidised ferredoxin
 
 
H2O
2 H+
H2O
2 H+
 
+ 2 reduced ferredoxin
 

The three substrates of this enzyme are D-glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate, oxidized ferredoxin, and water. Its products are 3-phospho-D-glyceric acid, reduced ferredoxin and two protons.

This enzyme belongs to the family of oxidoreductases, specifically those acting on the aldehyde or oxo group of donor with an iron-sulfur protein as acceptor. The systematic name of this enzyme class is D-glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate:ferredoxin oxidoreductase. Other names in common use include GAPOR, glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate Fd oxidoreductase, and glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate ferredoxin reductase.
