Identification of three classes of hydrogenase in the genus, Desulfovibrio.
A comparison of amino-terminal amino acid sequences from the large and small subunits of hydrogenases from Desulfovibrio reveals significant differences. These results, in conjunction with antibody analyses, clearly indicate that the iron, iron + nickel, and iron + nickel + selenium containing hydrogenases represent three distinct classes of hydrogenase in Desulfovibrio.
