Description | This entry represents the N-terminal domain of formate dehydrogenase H (Formate-Dh-H), which catalyzes the reversible oxidation of formate to CO2 with the release of a proton and two electrons. Formate-Dh-H is a component of the anaerobic formate hydrogen lyase complex. The E. coli formate dehydrogenase H (Fdh-H) is a monomer composed of a single polypeptide chain with a Mo active site region and a [4Fe-4S] centre [, ]. Proteins containing this domain belong to the molybdopterin_binding (MopB) superfamily of proteins. | Name | Formate dehydrogenase H, N-terminal |
