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.

The purification by affinity chromatography up to homogeneity and the properties of NAD-reductase from purple sulfur bacterium Thiocapsa roseopersicina, strain BBS, are described. The molecular weight of NAD-reductase is about 80000; pI is 3.9. The enzyme consists of two subunits. According to the stabilizing effect of FAD at preparative electrophoresis and the inhibitory effect of atebrine NAD-reductase is a flavoprotein. The bulk of the enzyme (about 75%) is localized in the cell periplasmic space. NAD-reductase is less thermostable and has a lower O2 stability as compared to the NADP-reductase from the same organism. The enzyme is specific to NADH ane catalyzes the menadione-reductase reaction, diaphorase reaction of benzyl viologen and methyl viologen reductions. In the presence of NADH NAD-reductase reduces cytochromes c552 and "c3" from T. roseopersicina and forms a complex with spinach ferredoxin.
