Citrobacter sp. S-77 [NiFe]-hydrogenase harbors a standard [4Fe-4S] cluster proximal to the Ni-Fe active site. The presence of relocatable water molecules and a flexible aspartate enables the [4Fe-4S] to display redox-dependent conformational chan...
Standard [NiFe]-hydrogenase from Desulfovibrio vulgaris Miyazaki F (DvMF-H2ase) catalyzes the uptake and production of hydrogen (H2) and is a promising biocatalyst for future energy devices. However, DvMF-H2ase experiences oxidative inactivation u...
