In enzymology a formylmethanofuran-tetrahydromethanopterin N-formyltransferase (EC 2.3.1.101) is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reactionformylmethanofuran + 5678-tetrahydromethanopterin methanofuran + 5-formyl-5678-tetrahydromethanopterinThus the two substrates of this enzyme are formylmethanofuran and 5678-tetrahydromethanopterin whereas its two products are methanofuran and 5-formyl-5678-tetrahydromethanopterin.This enzyme belongs to the family of transferases specifically those acyltransferases transferring groups other than aminoacyl groups.
