formate acetyltransferase catalyzes the conversion of acetyl-CoA and formate to CoA and pyruvate

Date:

2023-02-22

Alternate names: pyruvate formate-lyase; formate C-acetyltransferase This enzyme converts formate + acetyl-CoA into pyruvate + CoA. This HMM describes formate acetyltransferase 1. More distantly related putative formate acetyltransferases have also been identified, including formate acetyltransferase 2 from E. coli, which is excluded from this model.
