fldI

Gene
fldI
Protein
(R)-phenyllactate dehydratase activator
Organism
Clostridium sporogenes
Length
264 amino acids
Function
Involved in the fermentation of L-phenylalanine via a Stickland reaction. Required for the activation of the (R)-phenyllactate dehydratase complex FldABC. Only in the oxidized state, FldI exhibits significant ATPase activity, which appears to be essential for unidirectional electron transfer. This protein is extremely sensitive towards oxygen.
