The importance of iron in the biosynthesis and assembly of [NiFe]-hydrogenases

[NiFe]-hydrogenases (Hyd) are redox-active metalloenzymes that catalyze the reversible oxidation of molecular hydrogen to protons and electrons. These enzymes are frequently heterodimeric and have a unique bimetallic active site in their catalytic large subunit and possess a complement of iron sulfu...
