FAD is converted between these states by accepting or donating electrons. FAD, in its fully oxidized form, or quinone form, accepts two electrons and two protons to become FADH 2 (hydroquinone form). The semiquinone (FADH ·) can be formed by either reduction of FAD or oxidation of FADH 2 by accepting or donating one electron and one proton ...
About 5-10% of flavoproteins have a covalently linked FAD. [2] Based on the available structural data, FAD-binding sites can be divided into more than 200 different types. [3] 90 flavoproteins are encoded in the human genome; about 84% require FAD and around 16% require FMN, whereas 5 proteins require both. [4]
The flavin-containing monooxygenase (FMO) protein family specializes in the oxidation of xeno-substrates in order to facilitate the excretion of these compounds from living organisms. [1] These enzymes can oxidize a wide array of heteroatoms , particularly soft nucleophiles , such as amines , sulfides , and phosphites .
The flavin group is capable of undergoing oxidation-reduction reactions, and can accept either one electron in a two-step process or two electrons at once. Reduction is made with the addition of hydrogen atoms to specific nitrogen atoms on the isoalloxazine ring system: Equilibrium between the oxidized (left) and totally reduced (right) forms ...

In molecular biology, the FAD dependent oxidoreductase family of proteins is a family of FAD dependent oxidoreductases. Members of this family include Glycerol-3-phosphate dehydrogenase EC 1.1.99.5 , Sarcosine oxidase beta subunit EC 1.5.3.1 , D-amino-acid dehydrogenase EC 1.4.99.1 , D-aspartate oxidase EC 1.4.3.1 .
