JACS 125, 8505 (2003) Potential / V vs SHE H 2 catalytic oxidation current InactiveActive Oxidative cycles at slow scan rates reveal the anaerobic interconversion between active and the ‘Ready’ state of NiFe Hydrogenase.

4 time/s Study kinetics of inactivation by applying steps to high -potential Rates of oxidative inactivation are independent of potential (electrodic driving force) (results at pH 8.8) Jones et al JACS, 2003 potential steps 

5 Study kinetics of activation by applying steps to low -potential Enzyme is easily reactivated Rate increases as potential is lowered (i.e. as driving force is raised) Jones et al JACS, 2003 semi-log plots increasing driving force (more negative potentials)

7 ADDING O 2 at -0.158 V vs. SHE, pH 9, 45 o C. 0.3 mV s -1. O 2 attacks site directly,and enzyme inactivated much faster than observed for anaerobic reaction. But most activity is regained rapidly when the scan direction is reversed, at the same potential as for the anaerobic inactivation. inject O 2 i (  A) Potential /V vs SHE -0.6-0.4-0.20.40.20.0 1.6 1.2 0.8 0.4 0.0 Lamle et al JACS 2004

11 Hypothesis... When active enzyme is drained of electrons, exposure to O 2 produces ‘Unready’ state in which O 2 is not fully reduced. But if electrons are readily available, O 2 is reduced to ‘water’ and ‘Ready’ state is formed.

13 Ni-B (‘Ready’) nearly pure state Ni-A or Ni-SU (‘Unready’) New crystallographic refinement leads to re-interpretation of the earlier structure of enzyme crystallised mainly in the ‘Unready’ state (Fontecilla-Camps).

14 Normalized current Time / sec -8 mV -158 mV -58 mV -33 mV -78 mV Reductive activation of Unready. As reductive step potential is raised, rate of activation slows down. Excellent first-order traces in all cases

15 Rate / s -1 Potential / V vs SHE pH 6.0 pH 7.0 Plot reveals sharp potential dependence of rate of activation of Unready state (5-100% H 2 ) limiting rate reached at -100 mV (pH 6)

16 Does Unready form of hydrogenase activate without H 2 ? current

18 In absence of H 2, reduction of Unready proceeds to a position of equilibrium Lamle et al. in preparation
