IUBMB Comments

S-hydroxymethylmycothiol is believed to form spontaneously from formaldehyde and mycothiol. This enzyme oxidizes the product of this spontaneous reaction to S-formylmycothiol, in a reaction that is analogous to EC 1.1.1.284, S-(hydroxymethyl)glutathione dehydrogenase.

The expected taxonomic range for this enzyme is: Bacteria, Archaea

Synonyms
mycothiol-dependent formaldehyde dehydrogenase, fd-fa1dh, mfadh, msh-dependent formaldehyde dehydrogenase, more
