WHAT DOES HYDROGENASE MEAN IN ENGLISH?

Hydrogenase

A hydrogenase is an enzyme that catalyses the reversible oxidation of molecular hydrogen, as shown in below: H2 + Aox → 2H+ + Ared 2H+ + Dred → H2 + Dox Hydrogen uptake is coupled to the reduction of electron acceptors such as oxygen, nitrate, sulfate, carbon dioxide, and fumarate. On the other hand, proton reduction is coupled to the oxidation of electron donors such as ferredoxin, and serves to dispose excess electrons in cells. Both low-molecular weight compounds and proteins such as FNRs, cytochrome c3, and cytochrome c6 can act as physiological electron donors or acceptors for hydrogenases.

Definition of hydrogenase in the English dictionary

The definition of hydrogenase in the dictionary is an enzyme in certain microorganisms that speeds up the reversible oxidation of hydrogen.
