Diol dehydratase reactivase ATPase-like domain
Diol dehydratase (DDH, EC:4.2.1.28) and its isofunctional homologue glycerol dehydratase (GDH, EC.4.2.1.30) are enzymes which catalyze the conversion of glycerol 1,2-propanediol, and 1,2-ethanediol to aldehydes. These reactions require coenzyme B12. Cleavage of the Co-C bond of coenzyme B12 by substrates or coenzyme analogues results in inactivation during which coenzyme B12 remains tightly bound to the apoenzyme. This family comprises of the large subunit of the diol dehydratase and glycerol dehydratase reactivating factors whose function is to reactivate the holoenzyme by exchange of a damaged cofactor for intact coenzyme.
