Flavoprotein (FAD). This bacterial enzyme is located on the inner surface of the cytoplasmic membrane and coupled to the respiratory chain via ubiquinone. Does not accept menaquinone. Activity is greatly enhanced by lipids. Requires thiamine diphosphate. The enzyme can also form acetoin.
Form
Liquid or lyophilized powder
