title: Selenium-dependent glycine reductase: differences in physicochemical properties and biological activities of selenoprotein A components isolated from Clostridium sticklandii and Clostridium purinolyticum.
abstract: The selenoprotein A component of the glycine reductase complex of Clostridium sticklandii was shown to differ in certain properties from the selenoprotein A produced by a purine-fermenting organism, Clostridium purinolyticum. Both proteins contain one selenocysteine and two cysteine residues.
