General Information

General Information Comment Organism
malfunction mutants of Methylobacterium extorquens AM1 defective in Fae are able to grow on succinate but not on methanol and are much more sensitive toward methanol and formaldehyde Methylorubrum extorquens
physiological function the enzyme is required for growth on methanol Methylorubrum extorquens
