The hyperthermophilic bacterium, Thermotoga maritima, contains an unusually complex iron-hydrogenase: amino acid sequence analyses versus biochemical characterization.

The hyperthermophilic bacterium, Thermotoga maritima, grows up to 90 degrees C by fermenting carbohydrates and it disposes of excess reductant by H(2) production. The H(2)-evolving cytoplasmic hydrogenase of this organism was shown to consist of three different subunits of masses 73 (alpha), 68 (beta) and 19 (gamma) kDa and to contain iron as the only metal. The genes encoding the subunits were clustered in a single operon in the order hydC (gamma), hydB (beta), and hydA (alpha). Sequence analyses indicated that: (a) the enzyme is an Fe-S-cluster-containing flavoprotein which uses NADH as an electron donor; and (b) the catalytic Fe-S cluster resides within the alpha-subunit, which is equivalent to the single subunit that constitutes most mesophilic Fe-hydrogenases. The alpha- and beta-subunits of the purified enzyme were separated by chromatography in the presence of 4 M urea. As predicted, the H(2)-dependent methyl viologen reduction activity of the holoenzyme (45-70 U mg(-1)) was retained in the alpha-subunit (130-160 U mg(-1)) after subunit separation. However, the holoenzyme did not contain flavin and neither it nor the alpha-subunit used NAD(P)(H) or T. maritima ferredoxin as an electron carrier. The holoenzyme, but not the alpha-subunit, reduced anthraquinone-2,6-disulfonate (apparent K(m), 690 microM) with H(2). The EPR properties of the reduced holoenzyme, when compared with those of the separated and reduced subunits, indicate the presence of a catalytic 'H-cluster' and three [4Fe-4S] and one [2Fe-2S] cluster in the alpha-subunit, together with one [4Fe-4S] and two [2Fe-2S] clusters in the beta-subunit. Sequence analyses predict that the alpha-subunit should contain an additional [2Fe-2S] cluster, while the beta-subunit should contain one [2Fe-2S] and three [4Fe-4S] clusters. The latter cluster contents are consistent with the measured Fe contents of about 32, 20 and 14 Fe mol(-1) for the holoenzyme and the alpha- and beta-subunits, respectively. The T. maritima enzyme is the first 'complex' Fe-hydrogenase to be purified and characterized, although the reason for its complexity remains unclear. << Less

The iron-hydrogenase of Thermotoga maritima utilizes ferredoxin and NADH synergistically: a new perspective on anaerobic hydrogen production.

The hyperthermophilic and anaerobic bacterium Thermotoga maritima ferments a wide variety of carbohydrates, producing acetate, CO(2), and H(2). Glucose is degraded through a classical Embden-Meyerhof pathway, and both NADH and reduced ferredoxin are generated. The oxidation of these electron carriers must be coupled to H(2) production, but the mechanism by which this occurs is unknown. The trimeric [FeFe]-type hydrogenase that was previously purified from T. maritima does not use either reduced ferredoxin or NADH as a sole electron donor. This problem has now been resolved by the demonstration that this hydrogenase requires the presence of both electron carriers for catalysis of H(2) production. The enzyme oxidizes NADH and ferredoxin simultaneously in an approximately 1:1 ratio and in a synergistic fashion to produce H(2). It is proposed that the enzyme represents a new class of bifurcating [FeFe] hydrogenase in which the exergonic oxidation of ferredoxin (midpoint potential, -453 mV) is used to drive the unfavorable oxidation of NADH (E(0)' = -320 mV) to produce H(2) (E(0)' = -420 mV). From genome sequence analysis, it is now clear that there are two major types of [FeFe] hydrogenases: the trimeric bifurcating enzyme and the more well-studied monomeric ferredoxin-dependent [FeFe] hydrogenase. Almost one-third of the known H(2)-producing anaerobes appear to contain homologs of the trimeric bifurcating enzyme, although many of them also harbor one or more homologs of the simpler ferredoxin-dependent hydrogenase. The discovery of the bifurcating hydrogenase gives a new perspective on our understanding of the bioenergetics and mechanism of H(2) production and of anaerobic metabolism in general. << Less
