X-ray structural, functional and computational studies of the O2-sensitive E. coli hydrogenase-1 C19G variant reveal an unusual [4Fe–4S] cluster

The crystal structure of the Escherichia coli O2-sensitive C19G [NiFe]-hydrogenase-1 variant shows that the mutation results in a novel FeS cluster, proximal to the Ni–Fe active site. While the proximal cluster of the native O2-tolerant enzyme can transfer two electrons to that site, EPR spectroscop...
