Enzyme Commission Number
EC 1.17.5.3
Product Overview
High-quality enzyme products.
Well-established quality management system.
Reaction
formate + a quinone = CO2 + a quinol
Systematic Name
formate:quinone oxidoreductase
Function
The enzyme contains molybdopterin-guanine dinucleotides, five [4Fe-4S] clusters and two heme b groups. Formate dehydrogenase-N oxidizes formate in the periplasm, transferring electrons via the menaquinone pool in the cytoplasmic membrane to a dissimilatory nitrate reductase (EC 1.7.5.1), which transfers electrons to nitrate in the cytoplasm. The system generates proton motive force under anaerobic conditions.
Other name
Fdh-N; FdnGHI; nitrate-inducible formate dehydrogenase; formate dehydrogenase N; FDH-N; nitrate inducible Fdn; nitrate inducible formate dehydrogenase
