Enzyme Information

1.97.1.4
[Formate-C-acetyltransferase]-activating enzyme.
based on mapping to UniProt P0A9N4
S-adenosyl-L-methionine + dihydroflavodoxin + [formate C-acetyltransferase]-glycine = 5'-deoxyadenosine + L-methionine + flavodoxin semiquinone + [formate C-acetyltransferase]-glycin-2-yl radical.
-!- A single glycine residue in EC 2.3.1.54 is oxidized to the corresponding radical by transfer of H from its CH(2) to AdoMet with concomitant cleavage of the latter. -!- The first stage is reduction of the AdoMet to give methionine and the 5'-deoxyadenosin-5'-yl radical, which then abstracts a hydrogen radical from the glycine residue.
