Abstract
The absorption spectrum of the hydrogenase from Chromatium, which contains four iron atoms and four atoms of acid-labile sulfide, in 80% dimethylssulfoxide or hexamethylphosphoramide suggests the presence of a single [4Fe-4S] cluster. The EPR spectra of the oxidized enzyme in air, argon or carbon monoxide are the same with signals centered at g = 2.01 . The enzyme reduced by hydrogen is EPR silent. The EPR spectrum is consistent with a [4Fe-4S] cluster. Chromatium hydrogenase and the hydrogenase from Proteus vulgaris show relative stability towards denaturation by sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS), urea, guanidine and organic solvents.
