Amino acid sequence of the [4Fe-4S] ferredoxin isolated from Desulfovibrio desulfuricans Norway.
The complete amino acid sequence of the [4Fe-4S] ferredoxin from Desulfovibrio desulfuricans Norway was determined by repetitive Edman degradation of the whole protein and peptides derived from tryptic digestion. The protein has 59 residues. Four of the six cysteine residues are involved in the binding of the [4Fe-4S] cluster in the same arrangement as in clostridial ferredoxins. This sequence ...
متن کاملFour-iron (sulfide) ferredoxin from Bacillus polymyxa.
Ferredoxin from Bacillus polymyxa contains (per mole) four non-heme iron residues, four acid-labile sulfide residues, and four cysteine residues. Its molecular weight is approximately 8,800, and it has an oxidation-reduction potential (E(m)) of -390 mv. It is active as an electron carrier in several ferredoxin-linked enzyme systems.
متن کاملSulfide Production from Cysteine by Desulfovibrio desulfuricans.
Two rumen nitrate-reducing isolates of Desulfovibrio desulfuricans were found to hydrolyze cysteine with the production of sulfide and pyruvate. When cultured on agar medium containing yeast extract with nitrate as the primary electron acceptor and ferrous chloride as the indicator, blackening of colonies occurred. The blackening of colonies appeared sooner and was more intense when either cyst...
متن کاملPurification of acetokinase from Desulfovibrio desulfuricans.
The formation of acetyl phosphate and adenosine diphosphate (ADP) from adenosine triphosphate (ATP) and acetate was first recognized by F. Lipmann (J. Biol. Chem. 155:55, 1944) in extracts of Lactobacillus delbrueckii and later by E. R. Stadtman and H. A. Barker (J. Biol. Chem. 184:769, 1950) in Clostridium kluyveri. I. C. Rose et al. (J. Biol. Chem. 211:737, 1954) purified the acetokinase of E...
متن کاملSerine biosynthesis in Desulfovibrio desulfuricans.
Cell-free extracts of Desulfovibrio desulfuricans possess enzymes which catalyze the synthesis of serine from 3-phosphoglycerate via the intermediates phosphohydroxypyruvate and phosphoserine.
