The <scene name='72/727110/Cv/10'>Fd-GS structure contains 4 domains</scene>. The N-terminal domain is an amidotransferase domain and contains an active site where <scene name='72/727110/Cv/11'>residue Cys1</scene> catalyzes the hydrolysis of glutamine to glutarate; a core domain; an FMN-binding domain which <scene name='72/727110/Cv/12'>contains an Fe3S4 cluster</scene> and reduces the intermediate iminoglutarate to 2-oxoglutarate and produces a second molecule of glutarate and a C-terminal domain. <scene name='72/727110/Cv/13'>Residue M475 is located between the FMN and the Fe3S4 cluster</scene>. It is is strictly conserved and may perform the electron transfer between the two centers. <scene name='72/727110/Cv/14'>FMN binding site</scene> The <scene name='72/727110/Cv/15'>2-oxoglutarate binds at the FMN-binding domain</scene><ref>PMID:11967268</ref>. | |||
