Nitrogenase is the only enzyme capable of reducing N2 to NH3. This challenging reaction
requires the coordinated transfer of multiple electrons from the reductase, Fe-protein, to the …

Flavin-based electron bifurcation is a newly discovered mechanism, by which a hydride
electron pair from NAD (P) H, coenzyme F420H2, H2, or formate is split by flavoproteins into …

Most methanogenic archaea can reduce CO2 with H2 to methane, and it is generally
assumed that the reactions and mechanisms of energy conservation that are involved are …

Flavodoxins are electron-transfer proteins involved in a variety of photosynthetic and non-
photosynthetic reactions in bacteria, whereas, in eukaryotes, a descendant of the flavodoxin …

Determining the redox potentials of protein cofactors and how they are influenced by their
molecular neighborhoods is essential for basic research and many biotechnological …

Cell extracts of uric acid-grown Clostridium acidurici catalyzed the coupled reduction of
NAD+ and ferredoxin with formate at a specific activity of 1.3 U/mg. The enzyme complex …

Electron bifurcation moves electrons from a two-electron donor to reduce two spatially
separated one-electron acceptors. If one of the electrons reduces a high-potential (lower …

This minireview covers the research carried out in recent years into different aspects of the
function of the flavoproteins involved in cyanobacterial photosynthetic electron transfer from …

Flavodoxins are small soluble electron transfer proteins widely present in bacteria and
absent in vertebrates. Flavodoxins participate in different metabolic pathways and, in some …

To understand how proteins fold in vivo, it is important to investigate the effects of
macromolecular crowding on protein folding. Here, the influence of crowding on in vitro …
