Iron Molybdenum Cofactor

The recognition that molybdenum is present in the nitrogenase enzymes as an extractable cofactor, containing iron, molybdenum and sulphur in the ratios 6-8:1:4-6, has stimulated investigations concerned with the synthesis and characterization of compounds containing these three elements. This paper describes the preparation and structure of complexes containing an Fe-M o-S framework, most of these systems being classified according to whether they contain a MoS 4 group coordinated as a bidentate ligand to one or two iron atoms, or an Fe 3 MoS 4 cubane-like cluster. Several physical properties of these complexes are presented, with reference to the corresponding properties of the iron-molybdenum cofactor of the nitrogenases, especially for those complexes that contain a pair of Fe 3 MoS 4 cubane-like clusters.

Iron Molybdenum Cofactor

The nifNE gene products of Klebsiella pneumoniae are required for the in vivo and in vitro synthesis of the iron-molybdenum cofactor (FeMo-co) of nitrogenase. Derepression of nifNE mutants for nitrogenase resulted in the accumulation of a small molecule, factor F395. Factor F395 is protein associated in vivo. We report here initial spectral characterization of this factor.Key words: FeMo-co, nitrogen fixation, Klebsiella pneumoniae, nifNE.
