Pyruvate ferredoxin oxidoreductase (PFOR), which catalyzes the oxidative decarboxylation of pyruvate to form acetyl-CoA and CO2, belongs to the family of 2-keto acid oxidoreductases.[1] This CoA-dependent enzyme uses thiamine pyrophosphate (TPP) as an additional cofactor. The anaerobic decarboxylation is a reversible process, and the two electrons obtained during one turnover are transferred to ferredoxine via [Fe4S4] clusters.[1]The initial steps of the oxidative decarboxylation resemble those of the aerobic TPP-dependent 2-oxoacid dehydrogenases.[2] Pyruvate reacts with A to form B after proton transfer, and B subsequently undergoes CO2 elimination to generate C (Scheme 1). Electron transfer to a [Fe4S4] cluster leads to radical cation D. Although intensive studies (X-ray
