Analyses of the large subunit histidine-rich motif expose an alternative proton transfer pathway in [NiFe] hydrogenases.

A highly conserved histidine-rich region with unknown function was recognized in the large subunit of [NiFe] hydrogenases. The HxHxxHxxHxH sequence occurs in most membrane-bound hydrogenases, but only two of these histidines are present in the cytoplasmic ones. Site-directed mutagenesis of the His-r...
