Bifunctional Carbon Monoxide Dehydrogenase/Acetyl-CoA Synthase (CODH/ACS)

Carbon monoxide dehydrogenase/acetyl-CoA synthase asymmetric unit containing two α2β2 tetramers.

Introduction



Structure


The CODH/ACS enzyme from M. thermoacetica is an α2β2 tetramer. Each β subunit (residues 2 to 674) carries out CODH activity, while each α subunit(residues 2 to 729) is responsible for ACS activity. The β subunit has 57% helical and 9% β-sheet character with 31 helices and 15 β-strands. Overall, the α subunit has 50% helical and 14% β-sheet character with 36 helices and 22 β-strands.
