Part of a complex that catalyzes the reversible reduction of CoM-S-S-CoB to the thiol-coenzymes H-S-CoM (coenzyme M) and H-S-CoB (coenzyme B). Cofactor metabolism; coenzyme M-coenzyme B heterodisulfide reduction; coenzyme B and coenzyme M from coenzyme M-coenzyme B heterodisulfide: step 1/1. The heterodisulfide reductase is composed of three subunits; HdrA, HdrB and HdrC. Belongs to the HdrB family.
