Popis: Metal-containing formate dehydrogenases (FDH) catalyse the reversible oxidation of formate to carbon dioxide at their molybdenum or tungsten active site. They display a diverse subunit and cofactor composition, but structural information on these enzymes is limited. Here we report the cryo-electron microscopic structures of the soluble Rhodobacter capsulatus FDH (RcFDH) as isolated and in the presence of reduced nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NADH). RcFDH assembles into a 360 kDa dimer of heterotetramers revealing a putative interconnection of electron pathway chains. In the presence of NADH, the RcFDH structure shows charging of cofactors, indicative of an increased electron load.
Rhodobacter capsulatus NAD+ dependent formate dehydrogenase (RcFDH) is a molybdoenzyme that catalyses the reversible oxidation of formate to carbon dioxide, and is of interest for biotechnological applications. Here the authors present the cryo-EM structures of RcFDH as isolated from R. capsulatus and in the reduced state with bound NADH, and discuss the enzyme mechanism.
