EC 1.3.98.2 Details

show Brenda entry

EC number

1.3.98.2

Accepted name

fumarate reductase (CoM/CoB)

Reaction

fumarate + CoM + CoB = succinate + CoM-S-S-CoB

Other name(s)

thiol:fumarate reductase, Tfr

Systematic name

fumarate CoM:CoB oxidoreductase (succinate forming)

Comment

The enzyme, isolated from the archaeon Methanobacterium thermoautotrophicum, is very oxygen sensitive. It cannot use reduced flavins, reduced coenzyme F₄₂₀, or NAD(P)H as an electron donor. Distinct from EC 1.3.1.6 [fumarate reductase (NADH)], EC 1.3.5.1 [succinate dehydrogenase (ubiquinone)], and EC 1.3.5.4 [fumarate reductase (quinol)].
