Summary
FhlA regulon. [More information is available at EcoGene: EG10475]. HycB is thought to code for a subunit of hydrogenase 3, a peptide of the [4Fe-4S] ferredoxin type, which functions as an intermediate electron carrier protein between hydrogenase 3 and formate dehydrogenase . [More information is available at EcoCyc: EG10475].
