The CODH/ACS enzyme from M. thermoacetica is an α2β2 tetramer.  The β subunit containing chains A, B, C, and D (residues ) carries out CODH activity, while the α subunit containing chains is responsible for ACS activity.
The CODH/ACS enzyme from M. thermoacetica is an α2β2 tetramer.  Each β subunit (residues 2 to 674) carries out CODH activity, while each α subunit(residues 2 to 729) is responsible for ACS activity.
