Abstract excerpt
Oxalobacter formigenes is an obligate anaerobe that colonizes the human gastrointestinal tract and employs oxalate breakdown to generate ATP in a novel process involving the interplay of two coupled enzymes and a membrane-bound oxalate:formate antiporter. Formyl-CoA transferase is a critical enzyme in oxalate-dependent ATP synthesis and is the first Class III CoA-transferase for which a high resolution,...
