| 1.5.7.1 | additional information | reduced ferredoxin cannot be the physiological electron donor in vivo, since growth by acetogenesis from H2 + CO2 has a negative ATP yield. Reduced methyl viologen is used as electron donor for following the MVred:methylene-THF oxidoreductase activity during the purification procedure. With ethanol as product and Fdred as electron donor for the MetVF-type MTHFR, the ATP yield becomes slightly positive (0.14 ATP/ethanol). But since only minor amounts of ethanol are produced, this does not result in an overall positive ATP yield | Clostridium ljungdahlii | ? | - |

| 1.5.7.1 | metabolism | type I- and III-MTHFRs are neither involved directly (as terminal electron acceptor) nor indirectly (by producing the fuel for the respiratory enzymes, reduced ferredoxin, by electron bifurcation) in energy conservation. Type IV-MTHFR may be coupled to energy conservation, either directly or indirectly. Modeling of cofactor dependence of enzyme MTHFR, detailed overview | Clostridium ljungdahlii |
