Electrochemical and spectroscopic characterization of the conversion of the 7Fe into the 8Fe form of ferredoxin III from Desulfovibrio africanus. Identification of a [4Fe-4S] cluster with one non-cysteine ligand.

Desulfovibrio africanus ferredoxin III is a protein (Mr 6585) containing one [3Fe-4S]1+,0 and one [4Fe-4S]2+,1+ core cluster when aerobically isolated. The amino acid sequence contains only seven cysteine residues, the minimum required to ligand these two clusters. Cyclic voltammery by means of dire...
