| UniProt code: P07658. |
| Organism: | Escherichia coli (strain K12). | |
| Taxonomy: | Bacteria; Proteobacteria; Gammaproteobacteria; Enterobacterales; Enterobacteriaceae; Escherichia. | |
| Function: | Decomposes formic acid to hydrogen and carbon dioxide under anaerobic conditions in the absence of exogenous electron acceptors. | |
| Catalytic activity: | Reaction=A + formate + H(+) = AH2 + CO2; Xref=Rhea:RHEA:27290, ChEBI:CHEBI:13193, ChEBI:CHEBI:15378, ChEBI:CHEBI:15740, ChEBI:CHEBI:16526, ChEBI:CHEBI:17499; EC=1.17.98.4; Evidence={ECO:0000269|PubMed:16830149, ECO:0000269|PubMed:9036855, ECO:0000269|PubMed:9521673}; | |
| Cofactor: | Name=[4Fe-4S] cluster; Xref=ChEBI:CHEBI:49883; Note=Binds 1 [4Fe-4S] cluster per subunit.; | |
| Cofactor: | Name=Mo-bis(molybdopterin guanine dinucleotide); Xref=ChEBI:CHEBI:60539; Note=Binds 1 molybdenum-bis(molybdopterin guanine dinucleotide) (Mo- bis-MGD) cofactor per subunit.; | |
| Activity regulation: | Inhibited by aerobic conditions. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:8626495, ECO:0000269|PubMed:9521673}. | |
| Subunit: | Consists of two separable enzymatic activities: a formate dehydrogenase component (FDH-H) and hydrogenase-3. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:16830149, ECO:0000269|PubMed:9036855}. | |
| Induction: | By formate. Repressed by oxygen, nitrate, nitrite, and other electron acceptors. | |
| Similarity: | Belongs to the prokaryotic molybdopterin-containing oxidoreductase family. {ECO:0000305}. | |
