Chromogenic assessment of the three molybdo-selenoprotein formate dehydrogenases in Escherichia coli
Escherichia coli synthesizes three selenocysteine-dependent formate dehydrogenases (Fdh) that also have a molybdenum cofactor. Fdh-H couples formate oxidation with proton reduction in the formate hydrogenlyase (FHL) complex. The activity of Fdh-H in solution can be measured with artificial redox dyes but, unlike Fdh-O and Fdh-N, it has never been observed by chromogenic activity staining after ...
متن کاملFormate fixation in pyruvate by Escherichia coli.
The phosphoroclastic decomposition of pyruvic acid to acetic and formic acids by enzyme extracts of Escherichia coli has been an object of study ever since acetyl phosphate was tentatively identified as an intermediate of this reaction (1). The finding by Utter, Lipmann, and Werkman that isotopic carbon of formate was incorporated into the carboxyl group and that the carboxyl carbon of acetate ...
متن کاملKinetics for Formate Dehydrogenase of Escherichia coli
Kinetic parameters of the selenium-containing, formate dehydrogenase component of the Escherichia coli formate-hydrogenlyase complex have been determined with purified enzyme. A ping-pong Bi Bi kinetic mechanism was observed. The K,,, for formate is 26 mM, and the K,,, for the electron-accepting dye, benzyl viologen, is in the range 1-5 mM. The maximal turnover rate for the formate-dependent ca...
متن کاملFormate and its role in hydrogen production in Escherichia coli.
The production of dihydrogen by Escherichia coli and other members of the Enterobacteriaceae is one of the classic features of mixed-acid fermentation. Synthesis of the multicomponent, membrane-associated FHL (formate hydrogenlyase) enzyme complex, which disproportionates formate into CO(2) and H(2), has an absolute requirement for formate. Formate, therefore, represents a signature molecule in...
متن کاملassessment of the efficiency of s.p.g.c refineries using network dea
data envelopment analysis (dea) is a powerful tool for measuring relative efficiency of organizational units referred to as decision making units (dmus). in most cases dmus have network structures with internal linking activities. traditional dea models, however, consider dmus as black boxes with no regard to their linking activities and therefore do not provide decision makers with the reasons...
