1.17.98.3 |
Accepted name: |
formate dehydrogenase (coenzyme F420) |
Reaction: |
formate + oxidized coenzyme F420 = CO2 + reduced coenzyme F420 |
Other name(s): |
coenzyme F420 reducing formate dehydrogenase; coenzyme F420-dependent formate dehydrogenase |
Systematic name: |
formate:coenzyme-F420 oxidoreductase |
Comments: |
The enzyme, characterized from methanogenic archaea, is involved in formate-dependent H2 production. It contains noncovalently bound FAD [1]. |
