✦ Synopsis


The purified Mo-Fe protein and Fe protein of nitrogenase from Azotobacter vinelandii have molecular weights (MW) of about 216000 and 64000, respectively. The Mo-Fe protein is composed of subunits of about 56000 MW, and the Fe protein has 2 equivalent subunits of about 33000 MW. The isoelectric point of the Mo-Fe protein is 5.2 and that of the :Fe protein is 4.7. Amino acid compositions reflect the acidic nature of the proteins. The Mo-Fe protein yielded 24 atoms of Fe, 20 atoms of acid-labile sulfide and 1.54 atoms of Mo per molecule. Analysis of the Fe protein showed 3.45 atoms of Fe per molecule.

A sequence homologous to the conventional nifH gene has been cloned from a different region of the Azotobacter vinelandii genome. Tn5 insertions were obtained in this clone and the mutagenized plasmid was used for marker exchange with A. vinelandii strain CA12 (delta nifHDK) to obtain Tn5 mutants. T
