摘要
By combining extracts from strains lacking genes encoding either the maturation enzymes or the large subunits of hydrogenases 1, 2 and 3 we could reconstitute in vitro under strictly anaerobic conditions 10-15% of the hydrogenase activity present in wild type Escherichia coli extracts. Purified, unprocessed Strep-tagged variants of the hydrogenase 2 large subunit, HybC, isolated from either a Delta hybD (encoding the hydrogenase 2-specific protease) mutant or a strain deficient in HypF could also be matured to active, processed enzyme using this system. These studies reveal that minimally one step early on the hydrogenase maturation pathway is oxygen-labile. (c) 2010 Federation of European Biochemical Societies. Published by Elsevier B.V.
