| Accepted name: |
5,10-methenyltetrahydromethanopterin hydrogenase |
| Reaction: |
H2 + 5,10-methenyltetrahydromethanopterin = H+ + 5,10-methylenetetrahydromethanopterin |
| Other name(s): |
H2-forming N5,N10-methylenetetrahydromethanopterin dehydrogenase; nonmetal hydrogenase; N5,N10-methenyltetrahydromethanopterin hydrogenase; hydrogen:N5,N10-methenyltetrahydromethanopterin oxidoreductase |
| Systematic name: |
hydrogen:5,10-methenyltetrahydromethanopterin oxidoreductase |
| Comments: |
Does not catalyse the reduction of artificial dyes. Does not by itself catalyse a H2/H+ exchange reaction. Does not contain nickel or iron-sulfur clusters. |
