Abstract
Evidence is presented for a new heat-stable cofactor that is required for carbon dioxide reduction to methane by extracts of Methanobacterium thermoautotrophicum. This carbon dioxide reduction factor (CDR factor) is present in certain fractions of cell extract eluted from a DEAE-cellulose ion exchange column. The factor is required for reactions that involve methanogenic C1 intermediates more oxidized than formaldehyde.
