Abstract: Microorganisms utilize electron bifurcating enzymes in metabolic pathways to carry out thermodynamically unfavorable reactions. Bifurcating FeFe-hydrogenases (HydABC) reversibly oxidize NADH (E′∼−280 mV, under physiological conditions) and reduce protons to H2 gas (E°′−414 mV) by coupling… read more here.
