Fumarate reductase

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Fumarate reductase is the enzyme that converts fumarate to succinate, and is important in microbial metabolism as a part of anaerobic respiration.[1] The catalyzed reaction is:

Fumarate reductases can be divided into two classes depending on the electron acceptor:
