cdhB2

Gene
cdhB2
Protein
Acetyl-CoA decarbonylase/synthase complex subunit epsilon 2
Organism
Methanosarcina mazei (strain ATCC BAA-159 / DSM 3647 / Goe1 / Go1 / JCM 11833 / OCM 88)
Length
170 amino acids
Function
Part of a complex that catalyzes the reversible cleavage of acetyl-CoA, allowing growth on acetate as sole source of carbon and energy. The alpha-epsilon subcomponent functions as a carbon monoxide dehydrogenase. The precise role of the epsilon subunit is unclear; it may have a stabilizing role within the alpha(2)epsilon(2) component and/or be involved in electron transfer to FAD during a potential FAD-mediated CO oxidation.
Similarity
Belongs to the CdhB family.
