Molybdenum nitrogenase of Azotobacter chroococcum. Tight binding of MgADP to the MoFe protein.
The dye-oxidized or dithionite-reduced forms of the MoFe protein of molybdenum nitrogenase of Azotobacter chroococcum were shown to bind 2 mol of MgADP/mol of protein, as determined by column equilibrium techniques. The gel-filtration elution profile of unbound Mg[14C]ADP was not symmetrical, consistent with a low rate of dissociation from the protein. Symmetrical elution profiles were observed...
متن کاملThe vanadium nitrogenase of Azotobacter chroococcum
1. Nitrogenase activity of a strain of Azotobacter chroococcum lacking the structural genes of Monitrogenase (nifHDK) was associated with a V+Fe-containing protein and an Fe-containing protein [Robson, Eady, Richardson, Miller, Hawkins & Postgate (1986) Nature (London) 322, 388-390; Eady, Robson, Richardson, Miller & Hawkins (1987) Biochem. J. 244, 197-207]. 2. The Fe protein was purifed to hom...

متن کاملNitrogenase MoFe protein from Clostridium pasteurianum at 1.08 Å resolution: comparison with the Azotobacter vinelandii MoFe protein
The X-ray crystal structure of the nitrogenase MoFe protein from Clostridium pasteurianum (Cp1) has been determined at 1.08 Å resolution by multiwavelength anomalous diffraction phasing. Cp1 and the ortholog from Azotobacter vinelandii (Av1) represent two distinct families of nitrogenases, differing primarily by a long insertion in the α-subunit and a deletion in the β-subunit of Cp1 relative t...
متن کاملSite-directed mutagenesis of the nitrogenase MoFe protein of Azotobacter vinelandii.
A strategy has been formulated for the site-directed mutagenesis of the Azotobacter vinelandii nifDK genes. These genes encode the alpha and beta subunits of the MoFe protein of nitrogenase, respectively. Six mutant strains, which produce MoFe proteins altered in their alpha subunit by known single amino acid substitutions, have been produced. Three of these transversion mutations involve cyste...
