Reaction

Reaction Comment Organism Reaction ID
(S)-dihydroorotate + a quinone = orotate + a quinol existence of 3 families differing in their selectivity for oxidizing substrates: 1A are soluble, containing FMN and use fumarate, 1B are soluble, one subunit contains an iron-sulfur center, FAD and reduces NAD+, family 2 enzymes are membrane-bound, contain FMN and are oxidized by ubiquinone. Mechanism consists of 3 reaction phases. Different binding-mechanisms for enzyme the reaction-steps are suggested Escherichia coli
