Protein Family Models

This entry represents the FmdE protein that is encode by the molybdenum formylmethanofuran dehydrogenase operon. FmdE does not co-purify with the molybdenum isozyme that is formed by FmdC and FmdB [1]. The domain is typically found as a single copy, but is repeated in some sequence two to three times. It is also common place to find this domain co-occurs with a zinc-beta ribbon domain, suggesting that is may bind nucleic acid and be involved in transcription regulation. [1]. 8954165.

formylmethanofuran dehydrogenase subunit E (FmdE) family protein similar to the protein encoded by the fmdE gene from the methanogenic archaeon Methanobacterium thermoautotrophicum that is co-transcribed with genes encoding subunits of molybdenum formylmethanofuran dehydrogenase, an enzyme that is involved in methane production
