show Brenda entry

EC number

1.8.7.3

Accepted name

ferredoxin:CoB-CoM heterodisulfide reductase

Reaction

2 oxidized ferredoxin [iron-sulfur] cluster + CoB + CoM = 2 reduced ferredoxin [iron-sulfur] cluster + CoM-S-S-CoB + 2 H⁺

Other name(s)

hdrABC (gene names), hdrA1B1C1 (gene names), hdrA2B2C2 (gene names)

Systematic name

CoB,CoM:ferredoxin oxidoreductase

Comment

HdrABC is an enzyme complex that is found in most methanogens and catalyses the reduction of the CoB-CoM heterodisulfide back to CoB and CoM. HdrA contains a FAD cofactor that acts as the entry point for electrons, which are transferred via HdrC to the HdrB catalytic subunit. One form of the enzyme from Methanosarcina acetivorans (HdrA2B2C2) can also catalyse EC 1.8.98.4, coenzyme F₄₂₀:CoB-CoM heterodisulfide,ferredoxin reductase. cf. EC 1.8.98.5, H₂:CoB-CoM heterodisulfide,ferredoxin reductase, EC 1.8.98.6, formate:CoB-CoM heterodisulfide,ferredoxin reductase, and EC 1.8.98.1, dihydromethanophenazine:CoB-CoM heterodisulfide reductase.
