[Purification and properties of phototrophic bacteria Thiocapsa roseopersicina hydrogenase bound with chromatophores].
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.
