Isolation and characterization of an Fe,-S8 ferredoxin (ferredoxin II) from Clostridium thermoaceticum.
A second ferredoxin protein was isolated from the thermophilic anaerobic bacterium Clostridium thermoaceticum and termed ferredoxin II. This ferredoxin was found to contain 7.9 +/- 0.3 iron atoms and 7.4 +/- 0.4 acid-labile sulfur atoms per mol of protein. Extrusion studies of the iron-sulfur centers showed the presence of two [Fe4-S4] centers per mol of protein and accounted for all of the iro...
متن کاملA four-iron, four-sulfide ferredoxin with high thermostability from Clostridium thermoaceticum.
A ferredoxin containing only one [Fe4S4] cluster was purified from Clostridium thermoaceticum. It has a molecular weight of about 7,300, a partial specific volume of 0.67, and an isoelectric point of 3.25. Its absorption spectrum has two maxima at 390 nm (epsilon = 16.8 X 10(3)M-1cm-1) and at 280 nm (epsilon = 24.2 X 10(3)M-1cm-1). The absorption at 390 nm is almost half that of other clostridi...
متن کاملIsolation and Partial Characterization of Ferredoxin from Zea mays.
Ferredoxins have been isolated and purified from several varieties of higher plants. These proteins appear to have similar molecular weights (10-12,000), contain 2 g-atoms of iron per mole, and support photoreduction of NADP with chloroplasts. Recently, great interest has been focused on some plant species that have a high photosynthetic capacity for CO, assimilation. These include many of the ...
متن کاملNondenaturing procedure for rapid preparation of ferredoxin from Clostridium pasteurianum.
Lovcnberg and Williams (1‘1 have reported that, when a solution of Clostridium pastewianum ferredoxin in 90% ammonium sulfate is treated on a column of DEAE-cellulose, ferredoxin is retained by the column. They showed t,hat, ferredoxin is eluted when the ammoniuni sulfate concentration is lowered to about 35c/, saturation. Thcsc observations suggested the method described in this paper for puri...
متن کاملProton magnetic resonance study of ferredoxin from Clostridium pasteurianum.
Magnetic susceptibilities of both reduced and oxidized ferredoxin from Clostridium pasteurianum were obtained in solution. Whereas the reduced form exhibits a Curie law behavior, the magnetic susceptibility of oxidized ferredoxin in fact increases with temperature and suggests extensive antiferromagnetic exchange coupling between the component iron atoms. Contact-shifted resonances are observed...
