The influence of oxygen on [NiFe]-hydrogenase cofactor biosynthesis and how ligation of carbon monoxide precedes cyanation.

The class of [NiFe]-hydrogenases is characterized by a bimetallic cofactor comprising low-spin nickel and iron ions, the latter of which is modified with a single carbon monoxide (CO) and two cyanide (CN-) molecules. Generation of these ligands in vivo requires a complex maturation apparatus in whic...

description The class of [NiFe]-hydrogenases is characterized by a bimetallic cofactor comprising low-spin nickel and iron ions, the latter of which is modified with a single carbon monoxide (CO) and two cyanide (CN-) molecules. Generation of these ligands in vivo requires a complex maturation apparatus in which the HypC-HypD complex acts as a 'construction site' for the Fe-(CN)2CO portion of the cofactor. The order of addition of the CO and CN- ligands determines the ultimate structure and catalytic efficiency of the cofactor; however much debate surrounds the succession of events.
