Abstract

Iron K-edge e.x.a.f.s. data for the iron-vanadium cofactor (FeVaco) from Azotobacter chroococcum vanadium nitrogenase reported here provide further evidence for the structural similarity between this and the iron-molybdenum nitrogenase cofactor (FeMoco) from Klebsiella pneumoniae molybdenum nitrogenase [Arber, Flood, Garner, Gormal, Hasnain & Smith (1988) Biochem. J. 252, 421-425]. The e.x.a.f.s. data are consistent with the vanadium being present in a V-Fe-S cluster, thus confirming that the N-methylformamide extract of the VFe protein component of A. chroococcum vanadium nitrogenase does indeed contain a polynuclear metal-sulphur cluster. Additionally, a long Fe-Fe distance is observed as 0.369 nm, demonstrating the presence of a long-range order in the cluster.
