Popis: Hydrogen production in nature is performed by hydrogenases. Among them, [FeFe]-hydrogenases have a peculiar active site, named H-cluster, that is made of two parts, synthesized in different pathways. The cubane sub-cluster requires the normal iron-sulfur cluster maturation machinery. The [2Fe] sub-cluster instead requires a dedicated set of maturase proteins, HydE, HydF, and HydG that work to assemble the cluster and deliver it to the apo-hydrogenase. In particular, the delivery is performed by HydF. In this review, we will perform an overview of the latest knowledge on the maturation machinery of the H-cluster, focusing in particular on HydF.
