Abstract excerpt
[Fe]-hydrogenase is one of three types of enzymes known to activate H(2). Crystal structure analysis recently revealed that its active site iron is ligated square-pyramidally by Cys176-sulfur, two CO, an "unknown" ligand and the sp(2)-hybridized nitrogen of a unique iron-guanylylpyridinol-cofacto...
