Abstract:
:The three-dimensional structure of the nickel-containing hydrogenase from Thiocapsa roseopersicina has been determined at a resolution of 2 nm in the plane and 4 nm in the vertical direction by electron microscopy and computerized image processing on microcrystals of the enzyme. The enzyme forms a large ring-shaped complex containing six each of the large (62-kDa) and small (26-kDa) subunits. The complex is very open, with six well-separated dumbbell-shaped masses surrounding a large cylindrical hole. Each dumbbell is interpreted as consisting of one large and one small subunit.
