Identification
Name:Formate dehydrogenase, nitrate-inducible, major subunit
Synonyms:
  • Anaerobic formate dehydrogenase major subunit
  • Formate dehydrogenase-N subunit alpha
  • FDH-N subunit alpha
Gene Name:fdnG
Enzyme Class:
Biological Properties
General Function:Involved in formate dehydrogenase (NAD+) activity
Specific Function:Formate dehydrogenase allows E.coli to use formate as major electron donor during anaerobic respiration, when nitrate is used as electron acceptor. The alpha subunit forms the active site
