Journal ArticleDOI

Crystal Structure of the Xanthine Oxidase-Related Aldehyde Oxido-Reductase from D. gigas

TL;DR: The crystal structure of the aldehyde oxido-reductase (Mop) from the sulfate reducing anaerobic Gram-negative bacterium Desulfovibrio gigas has been determined at 2.25 Å resolution by multiple isomorphous replacement and refined.
Journal ArticleDOI

The three classes of hydrogenases from sulfate-reducing bacteria of the genus Desulfovibrio

TL;DR: Three types of hydrogenases have been isolated from the sulfate-reducing bacteria of the genus Desulfovibrio and it is suggested that selenium is a ligand to nickel and suggest that the redox active nickel is ligated by at least two cysteinyl thiolate and one selenocysteine selenolate residues.
Journal ArticleDOI

Crystal structure of the first dissimilatory nitrate reductase at 1.9 A solved by MAD methods.

TL;DR: The polypeptide fold of NAP and the arrangement of the cofactors is related to that of Escherichia coli formate dehydrogenase (FDH) and distantly resembles dimethylsulphoxide reductase.
Journal ArticleDOI

A novel type of catalytic copper cluster in nitrous oxide reductase.

TL;DR: The copper anomalous signal was used to solve the crystal structure of N2O reductase from Pseudomonas nautica by multiwavelength anomalous dispersion, and reveals that the CuZ center belongs to a new type of metal cluster, in which four copper ions are liganded by seven histidine residues.
Journal ArticleDOI

Bacterial nitrate reductases: Molecular and biological aspects of nitrate reduction.

TL;DR: The biological and molecular properties of prokaryotic nitrate reductases are reviewed along with their gene organization and expression, which are necessary to understand the biological processes involved in nitrate reduction.
