CommentThis enzyme [1] is a member of the radical-SAM family (PF04055) and utilizes S-adenosyl methionine, an iron-sulfur cluster and a reductant (dihydroflavodoxin [2]) to produce a glycine-centered radical in the class III (anaerobic) ribonucleotide triphosphate reductase (NrdD, TIGR02487). The two components form an alpha-2/beta-2 heterodimer.
