Diversity and transcription of proteases involved in the maturation of hydrogenases in Nostoc punctiforme ATCC 29133 and Nostoc sp. strain PCC 7120

open access: yesBMC Microbiology, 2009
Background The last step in the maturation process of the large subunit of [NiFe]-hydrogenases is a proteolytic cleavage of the C-terminal by a hydrogenase specific protease.

Hydrogen-Cycling during Solventogenesis in Clostridium acetobutylicum American Type Culture Collection (ATCC) 824 Requires the [NiFe]-Hydrogenase for Energy Conservation

open access: yesFermentation, 2018
Clostridium acetobutylicum has traditionally been used for production of acetone, butanol, and ethanol (ABE). Butanol is a commodity chemical due in part to its suitability as a biofuel; however, the current yield of this product from biological systems ...

The [FeFe] hydrogenase of Nyctotherus ovalis has a chimeric origin

open access: yesBMC Evolutionary Biology, 2007
Background The hydrogenosomes of the anaerobic ciliate Nyctotherus ovalis show how mitochondria can evolve into hydrogenosomes because they possess a mitochondrial genome and parts of an electron-transport chain on the one hand, and a hydrogenase on the ...

Hydrogen-fueled CO2 reduction using oxygen-tolerant oxidoreductases

open access: yesFrontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology, 2023
Hydrogen gas obtained from cheap or sustainable sources has been investigated as an alternative to fossil fuels. By using hydrogenase (H2ase) and formate dehydrogenase (FDH), H2 and CO2 gases can be converted to formate, which can be conveniently stored ...

Classification and phylogeny of hydrogenases [PDF]

open access: yesFEMS Microbiology Reviews, 2001
Hydrogenases (H2ases) catalyze the reversible oxidation of molecular hydrogen and play a central role in microbial energy metabolism. Most of these enzymes are found in Archaea and Bacteria, but a few are present in Eucarya as well. They can be distributed into three classes: the [Fe]-H2ases, the [NiFe]-H2ases, and the metal-free H2ases.

Distribution analysis of hydrogenases in surface waters of marine and freshwater environments. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2010
BACKGROUND: Surface waters of aquatic environments have been shown to both evolve and consume hydrogen and the ocean is estimated to be the principal natural source.

Kinetic Studies on Hydrogenase

open access: yesJournal of Biological Chemistry, 1963
The kinetics of hydrogenase from Clostridium pasteurianum and from Proteus vulgaris were studied by measuring the HD and D/sub 2/ produced when the enzyme catalyzes the exchange between H/sub 2/ and 100% D/sub 2/O. The ratio of D/sub 2/ to HD production depends on the enzyme concentration because the HD produced by the exchange of H/sub 2/ can react ...

Photoinhibition of FeFe Hydrogenase [PDF]

open access: yesACS Catalysis, 2017
In the enzyme FeFe hydrogenase, hydrogen oxidation and production occur at the H-cluster, a Fe6S6 active site that bears intrinsic carbonyl and cyanide ligands. This enzyme has been coupled to photosensitizers to design H2 photoproduction systems, and yet, according to earlier reports, the enzyme from Desulfovibrio desulfuricans is "easily destroyed ...

Respiratory membrane endo-hydrogenase activity in the microaerophile Azorhizobium caulinodans is bidirectional. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2012
BACKGROUND: The microaerophilic bacterium Azorhizobium caulinodans, when fixing N(2) both in pure cultures held at 20 µM dissolved O(2) tension and as endosymbiont of Sesbania rostrata legume nodules, employs a novel, respiratory-membrane endo ...
