Abstract excerpt
In Rhodobacter capsulatus, ferredoxin I (FdI) serves as natural electron donor to nitrogenase. In order to probe amino acid residues possibly involved in the interaction with dinitrogenase reductase, FdI was subjected to site-specific mutagenesis. A three-dimensional structure of FdI was designed...
