The method of solution and puridication of hydrogenase from chromatophores of purpur sulphur bacteria Thiocapsa roseopersicina strain BBS are described. Hydrogenase molecular weight is 73000. It contains 4,4 mole S2- and 3.1 mole Fe2+ per mole of protein; pI 4.15. The enzyme absorption spectrum has the maximun et 400-410 nm, which is characteristic of proteins containing non-haem iron. Membrane--linked enzyme as well as soluble hydrogenase of that microorganism is characterized by high thermal stability: inactivation occurs at the temperature above 78 degrees C when the optimal temperature for that enzyme is 70 degrees C. Homogenous enzyme catalyses D2--H2O exchange reaction, reversible redox reaction of methyl viologene and benzyl viologene.

The effect of chelation on rate or air inactivation of hydrogenase from Clostridium pasteurianum has been investigated. All chelating agents used, whether water-soluble or water-insoluble, afforded protection against oxygen inactivation. EDTA appeared to be the most effective. Thus, in the absence of EDTA, hydrogenase in aqueous solution was nearly totally inactivated after 1 hour incubation in air, whereas 0.5 M EDTA (which did not affect significantly catalytic activity) allowed 41% retention of the initial activity even after 3 days incubation.

Hydrogenase, purified to an average specific activity of 328 mumol of H2 evolved/(min X mg of protein) from Clostridium pasteurianum W5, was found to have 4-5 Fe and 4-5 labile sulfur atoms per molecule of 60,000 molecular weight, in contrast with earlier reports of 12 Fe per molecule. Displacement of the iron-sulfur cluster from hydrogenase by thiophenol in 80% hexamethyl phosphoramide:20% H2O yielded the Fe4S4 (thiophenyl)4 dianion according to absorption spectroscopy. Electron paramagnetic resonance spectroscopy at 12 K showed that the iron-sulfur cluster in the enzyme could be reduced by the H2 to a state (g-values of 2.098, 1.970, and 1.898) similar to that in reduced ferredoxin and could be oxidized by dichlorophenolindophenol or H+ to a state (g-values at 2.099, 2.041, and 2.001) similar to that in high potential iron-sulfur proteins. These oxidations and reductions appeared to occur within the turnover time of the enzyme. Deuterium failed to narrow the electron paramagnetic resonance signal in either state, but the competitive inhibitor carbon monoxide reversibly formed a compound with either state and substantially altered the electron paramagnetic resonance. 13CO produced a broadening of these signals, suggesting the formation of a direct CO complex with the iron-sulfur cluster. These data are consistent with a model of the active site of the enzyme in which a four-iron four-sulfur cluster is a component that can accept one or two electrons from and donate either one or two electrons to substrates, and in which the iron-sulfur cluster serves as the site of binding of gaseous ligands.

The hydrogenase from Paracoccus denitrificans, which is an intrinsic membrane protein, has been solubilised from membranes by Triton X-100. The partial specific volume of the solubilised protein has been determined using sucrose density gradient centrifugation in H2O and 2H2O. The values of the specific volumes of hydrogenase, measured in the presence or absence of Triton X-100, are 0.73 and 0.74 ml . g-1, respectively, indicating that hydrogenase binds much less than one micelle of Triton X-100. The sedimentation coefficient of hydrogenase is increased from 10.4 S to 15.9 S on removal of detergent. The Stokes' radius of hydrogenase, determined by gel filtration on Sepharose 6B, is 5.5 nm in the presence of Triton X-100 compared to 6.7 nm in the absence of detergent. The apparent molecular weight therefore increases from 242,500 to 466,000 on removal of detergent. In the presence of urea and sodium dodecylsulphate, the hydrogenase has an apparent molecular weight of 63,000. The enzyme therefore behaves as a non-covalently linked tetramer in the presence of Triton X-100. Removal of Triton X-100 results in association of tetramers to form octamers.

The soluble and chromatophore-bound hydrogenases from the purple sulphur bacterium Thiocapsa roseopersicina strain BBS were purified up to homogeneity and the properties studied. The amino acid composition of hydrogenase preparations from different fractions of T. roseopersicina is identical, glycine and alanine as N-terminal amino acid residues. In comparison with other hydrogenases, especially in the immobilized state, the preparations obtained are shown to be more stable to O2 during storage and they are characterized by high thermal stability. Inactivation is observed above 78--80 degrees C and the optimal temperature for enzyme action is 70 degrees C. The homogeneous enzyme preparations catalyse the exchange reaction between 2H2 and H2O and reversible redox reactions of methyl viologen and benzyl viologen as well as H2 formation from reduced ferredoxin. According to our data, the hydrogenase of T. roseopersicina bound with chromatophores is identical to the soluble one.

An in vitro system containing isolated chloroplasts, ferredoxin and bacterial hydrogenase on illumination evolves H2 and O2 from water. Maximum rate of hydrogen production so far achieved is two litres H2 per g. chlorophyll per h. The rate of H2 evolution per mg chlorophyll is dependent on concentrations of chlorophyll and ferredoxin in the reaction mixture. The rates as well as duration of H2 production are enhanced by the presence of oxygen scavengers and bovine serum albumin in the system. Hydrogenases and ferredoxins vary in their degree of cross reactivity in the chloroplast system; with some hydrogenases the H2 evolution rates were increased by the presence of additional biological electron carriers. Attempts to couple algal hydrogenases to the chloroplasts system have not succeeded so far.

From enrichment cultures four carbon monoxide utilizing bacteria were isolated; strain OM5 isolated from waste water was studied in detail. The cells are Gram-negative, slightly curved rods, motile by a single subpolarly inserted flagellum. The colonies are smooth, translucent and not slimy. The cells are able to grow autotrophically in mineral medium under an atmosphere of 40% CO, 5% O2 and 55% N2 at a doubling time of 20h (30 degrees C) or of 85% H2, 5% O2 and 10% CO2 at a doubling time of 7h. Heterotrophic growth occurred on organic acids such as acetate(td = 8h), pyruvate(td = 8h), lactate, crotonate, malate, succinate (td = 8h), formate (td = 35h) and glyoxylate as substrates. The enzyme system for carbon monoxide utilization is formed only during growth on CO; hydrogenase is present in cells grown on CO or on H2 + CO2 as well as grown on pyruvate. The rate of oxygen reduction by intact CO-grown cells is 3.7-fold higher in the presence of hydrogen than in the presence of carbon monoxide. During growth the stoichiometry of gas uptake was 6.1 CO + 2.8 O2 + H2O leads to CH2O +5.1 CO2. For the new isolate the name Pseudomonas carboxydovorans (Kistner) comb. nov. has been proposed.

The isolation method and some peoperties of purple sulphur bacteria (Thiocapsa roseopersicina strain BBS) hydrogenase are described Hydrogenase molecular weight is found to be 66000; it contains 3.7 moles of S2- and 3.9 moles of Fe2+ per one mole of the enzyme;pI=4.2. The enzyme absorption spectrum has the maximum at 400-412 nm which is characteristic of proteins containing non-haem iron. Hydrogenase is suggested to consist pf 4 subunits of two types: with molar weight 27000 and 6000. Unlike other hydrogenases, this enzyme is rather resistant to O2 and is more thermostable: the inactivation of the enzyme was observed at the temperature above 80 degrees C; Hydrogenase preparation catalyses D2-H2O exchange reaction, H2 evolution from the reduced methyl viologene (MV) and H2 absorption in the presense of MV or benzylviologene but not in the presense of NAD(P), FAD, FMN, azocarmine, methylene blue and ferricyanide.

Extracts of Thiocapsa roseopersicina cells show hydrogenase activity, measured by evolution of H2 from reduced methylviologene (MV) and by D2-H2O exchange reaction. According to these reactions the most part of hydrogenases is found to be in the soluble fraction. Hydrogenase activity measured in the exchange reaction is completely inhibited by p-chloromercurybenzoate (5-10- minus 3 M), iodacetate (1-10- minus 2 M) and 26% inhibited by KCN and o-phenanthroline (5-10- minus 3 M). Evolution of H2 from reduced MV was not inhibited by o-phenanthroline, KCN and iodacetate and was inhibited by 66% only with p-chloromercurybenzoate. Light and ATP stimulated hydrogenase activity of chromatophores did not affect on its activity in the soluble fraction. The results obtained show that there are certain differences in hydrogenase systems responsible for the exchange reaction and evolution of H2.

The cells of Pseudomonas methylica, strain 2, cultivated in a medium containing methanol, displayed the activity of hydrogenase in the exchange reaction (D2--H2O) and in the absorption of H2 in the presence of methylviologen, azocarmine, methylene blue, and ferricyanide. The rate of H2 utilization was highest in the presence of methylviologen. Cell extracts absorb H2 in the presence of methylviologen, NAD, and NADP, but much faster in the presence of flavin mononucleotide. The bulk of the hydrogenase remains, during centrifugation of the initial cell extract (3,000 g), in the soluble fraction (144,000 g). The absorption of oxygen by the cell suspensions and the incorporation of 14C of formiate into the cells are stimulated by H2. The cells, however, cannot grow in the autotrophic conditions at the account of molecular hydrogen and CO2.
