==Overview==
==Overview==
Formate dehydrogenase H from Escherichia coli contains selenocysteine, (SeCys), molybdenum, two molybdopterin guanine dinucleotide (MGD), cofactors, and an Fe4S4 cluster at the active site and catalyzes the, two-electron oxidation of formate to carbon dioxide. The crystal, structures of the oxidized [Mo(VI), Fe4S4(ox)] form of formate, dehydrogenase H (with and without bound inhibitor) and the reduced, [Mo(IV), Fe4S4(red)] form have been determined, revealing a four-domain, alphabeta structure with the molybdenum directly coordinated to selenium, and both MGD cofactors. These structures suggest a reaction mechanism that, directly involves SeCys140 and His141 in proton abstraction and the, molybdenum, molybdopterin, Lys44, and the Fe4S4 cluster in electron, transfer.
