formiato-deshidrogenasa
Scope note: Flavoproteínas que catalizan reversiblemente la reducción de dióxido de carbono a formiato. Muchos compuestos pueden actuar como aceptores, pero el único aceptor fisiológico es el NAD. Las enzimas son activas en la fermentación de azúcares y otros compuestos a dióxido de carbono y son enzimas claves en la obtención de energía cuando las bacterias son cultivadas en formato como principal fuente de carbono. Han sido purificadas de la sangre de bovinos. EC 1.2.1.2.

Scope note: Flavoproteins that catalyze reversibly the reduction of carbon dioxide to formate. Many compounds can act as acceptors, but the only physiologically active acceptor is NAD. The enzymes are active in the fermentation of sugars and other compounds to carbon dioxide and are the key enzymes in obtaining energy when bacteria are grown on formate as the main carbon source. They have been purified from bovine blood. EC 1.2.1.2.
