DE   hydroperoxy fatty acid reductase.
CA   a hydroperoxy polyunsaturated fatty acid + H(+) + NADPH = a hydroxy
CA   polyunsaturated fatty acid + H2O + NADP(+).
CC   -!- The enzyme, characterized from the cyanobacterium Synechocystis
CC       PCC 6803, can reduce unsaturated fatty acid hydroperoxides and alkyl
CC       hydroperoxides.
CC   -!- The enzyme, which utilizes NADPH generated by the photosynthetic
CC       electron transfer system, protects the cells from lipid peroxidation.
