Abstract
A kinetic analysis of the mechanism of action of NAD-dependent formate dehydrogenase (EC 1.2.1.2) from the methanol-utilizing yeast Candida methylica has been carried out. The dependence of the initial reaction rate on substrate concentrations and the inhibition by the reaction products and substrate analogs were investigated. The data obtained suggest that the kinetics of the formate dehydrogenase action are consistent with the formation of a ternary enzyme--substrate complex. NAD is the first substrate and NADH is the last product of the reaction, respectively.
