چکیده

Magnetic susceptibility and proton magnetic resonance spectra are reported for the oxidized and reduced forms of the iron-sulfur protein Bacillus polymyxa ferredoxin I. The magnetic susceptibility of the oxidized form indicates antiferromagnetic exchange coupling between component iron atoms that is quantitatively similar to that observed for the clostridial ferredoxins and for the [(C(2)H(5))(4)N](2) [Fe(4)S(4)(SCH(2)C(6)H(5))(4)] analog. Contact-shifted resonances observed in the proton-magnetic-resonance spectra of oxidized and reduced forms of the B. polymyxa protein can be correlated with the contact-shifted resonances of corresponding redox forms of the clostridial ferredoxins. Characteristics of the contact-shifted resonances observed in partially reduced B. polymyxa ferredoxin I are compatible with a "slow" rate of electron exchange between redox forms, which suggests that the "fast" electron exchange earlier observed in the eight-iron clostridial ferredoxins may derive from an intramolecular component.

Proton 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...

On the nature of the iron sulfur cluster in a deuterated algal ferredoxin.

A protonated and a completely deuterated two-iron algal ferredoxin from Synechococcus lividus have been studied by optical, electron paramagnetic resonance, electron-nuclear double resonance, proton magnetic resonance and Mossbauer spectroscopies; temperature dependent magnetic susceptibility measurements are reported as well. These studies have confirmed the electron localized model of the act...

Efficiency factors and ATP/ADP ratios in nitrogen-fixing Bacillus polymyxa and Bacillus azotofixans.

The efficiency factor, the number of moles of ATP generated per mole of glucose fermented, was determined in anaerobic, non-carbon-limited N2-fixing cultures of Bacillus polymyxa, Bacillus macerans, Bacillus azotofixans, and Clostridium butyricum through identification and quantitation of the fermentation products by 13C nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy and measurement of acetate kinase ...

Synthesis and characterization of some transition metal complexes of Schiff base derived from 2,4 - dihydroxybenzaldehyde

Abstract New N2O2 type Schiff base has been designed and synthesized by condensing 2,4 dihydroxy benzaldehyde and α-naphthylamine in ethanol. Solid metal complexes of the schiff base with Cu(II), Ni(II) and Zn(II) metal ion were synthesized and characterized by elemental analysis, magnetic susceptibility, molar conductance, IR, UV-Vis and ‘H NMR spectral studies. The data shows that the c...

Four-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.
