Protein film cryovoltammetry: Demonstrations with a 7Fe ([3Fe-4S] + [4Fe-4S]) ferredoxin

McEvoy JP, Armstrong FA

Low-temperature protein film voltammetry, demonstrated here by studies of Fe-S clusters in the 7Fe ferredoxin from Thermoplasma acidophilum, offers a novel way to investigate active site redox reactions, allowing resolution of complex transformations and transient states, and providing an immediate and sensitive gauge of solvent effects.
