Dihydrolipoyl dehydrogenase; Lipoamide dehydrogenase is an essential component of the alpha-ketoacid dehydrogenase complexes, namely the pyruvate dehydrogenase (PDH) complex, the branched-chain alpha-ketoacid dehydrogenase (BCKADH) complex, and likely also the 2-oxoglutarate dehydrogenase (ODH) complex. Catalyzes the reoxidation of dihydrolipoyl groups which are covalently attached to the lipoate acyltransferase components (E2) of the complexes. Is also able to catalyze the transhydrogenation of NADH and thio-NAD(+) in the absence of D,L- lipoamide, and the NADH-dependent reduction of [...]

Hypothetical protein; Toxic component of a type II toxin-antitoxin (TA) system. Upon expression in M.smegmatis inhibits colony formation. Its toxic effect is neutralized by coexpression with cognate antitoxin Rv0298/MT0312.

Molybdopterin synthase catalytic subunit 1; Converts molybdopterin precursor Z into molybdopterin. This requires the incorporation of two sulfur atoms into precursor Z to generate a dithiolene group. The sulfur is provided by MoaD (By similarity); Belongs to the MoaE family.
