C-terminal alcohol dehydrogenase domain of the acetaldehyde dehydrogenase-alcohol dehydrogenase bifunctional two-domain protein (AAD). Alcohol dehydrogenase domain located on the C-terminal of a bifunctional two-domain protein. The N-terminal of the protein contains an acetaldehyde-CoA dehydrogenase domain. This protein is involved in pyruvate metabolism. Pyruvate is converted to acetyl-CoA and formate by pyruvate formate-lysase (PFL). Under anaerobic condition, acetyl-CoA is reduced to acetaldehyde and ethanol by this two-domain protein. Acetyl-CoA is first converted into an enzyme-bound thiohemiacetal by the N-terminal acetaldehyde dehydrogenase domain. The enzyme-bound thiohemiacetal is subsequently reduced by the C-terminal NAD+-dependent alcohol dehydrogenase domain. In E. coli, this protein is called AdhE and was shown pyruvate formate-lysase (PFL) deactivase activity, which is involved in the inactivation of PFL, a key enzyme in anaerobic metabolism. In Escherichia coli and Entamoeba histolytica, this enzyme forms homopolymeric peptides composed of more than 20 protomers associated in a helical rod-like structure.
No pairwise interactions are available for this conserved domain.
