Abstract excerpt
The role of amino acid residues in the H(2)-activating subunit (HoxH) of the NAD-reducing hydrogenase (SH) from Alcaligenes eutrophus has been investigated by site-directed mutagenesis. Conserved residues in the N-terminal L1 (RGxE) and L2 (RxCGxCx(3)H) and the C-terminal L5 (DPCx(2)Cx(2)H/R) motifs of the active site-harboring subunit were chosen as targets. Crystal structure analysis of the [NiFe] hydrogenase...
