A safety cap protects hydrogenase from oxygen attack

Martin Winkler et al.

Summary: The protein morphing mechanism of [FeFe]-hydrogenase CbA5H controls the reversible transition between catalytic and inactive states, with a conserved cysteine residue protecting the active site from oxygen by acting as a safety cap. This protection mechanism is regulated by three non-conserved amino acids located approximately 13 angstrom away from the active site, demonstrating remote control of the first coordination sphere chemistry of the H-cluster.

Exploring Structure and Function of Redox Intermediates in [NiFe]-Hydrogenases by an Advanced Experimental Approach for Solvated, Lyophilized and Crystallized Metalloenzymes

Christian Lorent et al.

Summary: A new experimental setup was developed to study metalloenzymes in detail, allowing the controlled preparation and characterization of catalytic intermediates using various spectroscopic techniques. By investigating two O-2-tolerant [NiFe]-hydrogenases as model systems, detailed insights into the catalytic mechanisms and vibrational fingerprints were revealed. Additionally, the study highlighted the importance of complementing X-ray crystallographic data with spectroscopic analyses.
