Protein
Formylmethanofuran--tetrahydromethanopterin formyltransferase
Organism
Rhodopirellula baltica (strain DSM 10527 / NCIMB 13988 / SH1)
Function
Catalyzes the transfer of a formyl group from 5-formyl tetrahydromethanopterin (5-formyl-H(4)MPT) to methanofuran (MFR) so as to produce formylmethanofuran (formyl-MFR) and tetrahydromethanopterin (H(4)MPT).
Similarity
Belongs to the FTR family.
