Formate Dehydrogenase from Pseudomonas oxalaticus [PDF]
European Journal of Biochemistry, 1978 Formate dehydrogenase (EC 1.2.1.2) from Pseudomonas oxalaticus has been isolated and characterized. The enzyme (molecular weight 315000) is a complex flavoprotein containing 2 FMN, 18--25 non-heme iron atoms and 15--20 acid-labile sulphides. In the last step of the purification, a sucrose gradient centrifugation, a second catalytically active species ...

Degradation of acetaldehyde and its precursors by Pelobacter carbinolicus and P. acetylenicus. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2014 Pelobacter carbinolicus and P. acetylenicus oxidize ethanol in syntrophic cooperation with methanogens. Cocultures with Methanospirillum hungatei served as model systems for the elucidation of syntrophic ethanol oxidation previously done with the lost ...

NAD+-dependent Formate Dehydrogenase from Plants [PDF]
Acta Naturae, 2011 NAD(+)-dependent formate dehydrogenase (FDH, EC 1.2.1.2) widely occurs in nature. FDH consists of two identical subunits and contains neither prosthetic groups nor metal ions. This type of FDH was found in different microorganisms (including pathogenic ones), such as bacteria, yeasts, fungi, and plants. As opposed to microbiological FDHs functioning in

Clostridium acidurici Electron-Bifurcating Formate Dehydrogenase [PDF]
Applied and Environmental Microbiology, 2013 ABSTRACT Cell extracts of uric acid-grown Clostridium acidurici catalyzed the coupled reduction of NAD + and ferredoxin with formate at a specific activity of 1.3 U/mg. The enzyme complex catalyzing the electron-bifurcating reaction was purified 130-fold and found to be composed of ...
