7-Hydroxymethyl chlorophyll a reductase (EC 1.17.7.2, HCAR) is an enzyme with systematic name 71-hydroxychlorophyll a:ferredoxin oxidoreductase.[1] This enzyme catalyses the following chemical reaction

71-hydroxychlorophyll a + 2 reduced ferredoxin + 2 H+ chlorophyll a + 2 oxidized ferredoxin + H2O

7-Hydroxymethyl chlorophyll is a reductase that contains FAD and an iron-sulfur center.
