Incorporation of iron-sulphur clusters in membrane-bound proteins.
The completely sequenced genome of the cyanobacterium Synechocystis PCC 6803 contains several open reading frames, of which the deduced amino acid sequences show similarities to proteins known to be involved in FeS cluster synthesis of nitrogenase (Nif proteins) and other FeS proteins (Isc proteins). In this article, the results of our studies on these proteins are summarized and discussed with...

متن کاملClostridial iron-sulphur proteins.
Iron-sulfur proteins are ubiquitous catalysts of a wide range of biological reactions, and are particularly abundant in clostridia which lack the ability to synthesize hemes. The development of research on these metalloproteins has therefore been strongly associated with biochemical investigations of clostridial metabolism. Major breakthroughs in the field, from the first isolation of an iron-s...
متن کاملOxidation-reduction potentials of molybdenum, flavin and iron-sulphur centres in milk xanthine oxidase.
1. The mid-point reduction potentials of the various groups in xanthine oxidase from bovine milk were determined by potentiometric titration with dithionite in the presence of dye mediators, removing samples for quantification of the reduced species by e.p.r. (electron-paramagnetic-resonance) spectroscopy. The values obtained for the functional enzyme in pyrophosphate buffer, pH8.2, are: Fe/S c...
متن کاملOxidation--reduction potentials of molybdenum and iron--sulphur centres in nitrate reductase from Escherichia coli.
The potentials of the couples Mo(IV)--(Mo(V) and Mo(V)--Mo(VI) in nitrate reductase from Escherichia coli K12 were measured as + 180 mV and + 220 mV respectively at pH 7.14. The potentials associated with two other e.p.r. signals, believed to be due to iron--sulphur centres, were measured as + 50 mV and + 80 mV.
