Protein attributes

Sequence length	292 AA.
Sequence status	Complete.
Sequence processing	The displayed sequence is not processed.
Protein existence	Inferred from homology.

General annotation (Comments)

Function	Activation of pyruvate formate-lyase 2 under anaerobic conditions by generation of an organic free radical, using S-adenosylmethionine and reduced flavodoxin as cosubstrates to produce 5'-deoxy-adenosine By similarity.
Catalytic activity	S-adenosyl-L-methionine + dihydroflavodoxin + [formate C-acetyltransferase]-glycine = 5'-deoxyadenosine + L-methionine + flavodoxin semiquinone + [formate C-acetyltransferase]-glycin-2-yl radical.
Cofactor	Binds 1 4Fe-4S cluster. The cluster is coordinated with 3 cysteines and an exchangeable S-adenosyl-L-methionine By similarity.
Subcellular location	Cytoplasm By similarity.
Sequence similarities	Belongs to the organic radical-activating enzymes family. Contains 1 4Fe-4S ferredoxin-type domain.
