Crystal structure of formaldehyde dehydrogenaseCrystal structure of formaldehyde dehydrogenase
Structural highlights
1kol is a 2 chain structure with sequence from Pseudomonas putida. Full crystallographic information is available from OCA. For a guided tour on the structure components use FirstGlance.
FADH_PSEPU Catalyzes the NAD(+)-dependent oxidation of formaldehyde and acetoaldehyde as well as long-chain alcohols but is inactive against propionaldehyde, butyraldehyde, methanol and ethanol. Can also catalyze the dismutation of a wide range of aldehydes such as formaldehyde.[1][2]
