Infrared spectroscopy provides insight into the role of dioxygen in the nitrosylation pathway of a [2Fe2S] cluster iron-sulfur protein.
We use infrared spectroscopy to demonstrate the critical role that trace O2 plays in determining the products formed when a [2Fe2S] cluster protein reacts with nitric oxide (NO). The observed importance of O2 may have physiological relevance, as many pathogens sense NO using iron-sulfur proteins and...
