Popis: | Stopped-flow FTIR spectroscopy was used to monitor continuously the pre-steady- and steady-state phases of azide reduction by nitrogenase and the accompanying hydrolysis of ATP. This was characterized by a ca. 1.3 s lag phase that is explained by the number of Fe protein cycles required to effect the reductions of azide to N(2) + NH(3), N(2)H(4) + NH(3), or 3NH(3). Extrapolation of the steady-state time course for azide reduction to zero time showed that one azide binds within 200 ms to each FeMo cofactor. Inhibition of azide reduction by CO was established at times |
