abstract：:Escherichia coli has four [NiFe]-hydrogenases (Hyd); three of these, Hyd-1, Hyd-2 and Hyd-3 have been characterized well. In this study the requirement for the F(0)F(1)-ATP synthase for the activities of the hydrogen-oxidizing hydrogenases Hyd-1 and Hyd-2 was examined. During fermentative growth on glucose at pH 7.5 a...
