IUBMB Comments
This is an oxygen-sensitive enzyme that contains tungsten-molybdopterin and iron-sulfur clusters. Catalyses the oxidation of aldehydes (including crotonaldehyde, acetaldehyde, formaldehyde and glyceraldehyde) to their corresponding acids. However, it does not oxidize glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate [see EC 1.2.7.6, glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (ferredoxin)]. Can use ferredoxin or methyl viologen but not NAD(P)+ as electron acceptor.

the ability of the 4Fe-ferredoxin to accept electrons is not absolutely dependent upon Asp14 (of ferredoxin), as this residue can be effectively replaced by Cys. However, the efficiency of electron transfer is compromised if Asp14 is replaced by Ser, or if the 4Fe-cluster is converted to the 3Fe-form, but Asp14 does not appear to offer any kinetic advantage over the expected Cys
