the low coenzyme NAD-dependent activity of MDH with C1-C4 primary alcohols is strongly stimulated by Bacillus methanolicus protein ACT, in presence of NAD(H) cofactor and Mg2+-ions. MDH activation by ACT involves hydrolytic removal of the nicotinamide mononucleotide NMN(H) moiety of the NAD(H) cofactor of MDH, changing its Ping-Pong type of reaction mechanism into a ternary complex reaction mechanism |
