| Abstract | The high intensity x-ray flux from the synchrotron radiation at the Stanford Synchroton Radiation Project has been used to study the extended x-ray absorption fine structure (EXAFS) of the iron-sulfur protein Peptococcus aerogenes rubredoxin. Absorption measurements were made from 7080 eV, which is below the K-edge of iron, to about 650 eV above the edge and structure was obtained over the entire region. By means of a model iron-sulfur compound for evaluating the phase shifts, the variation of the absorption above the edge of lyophilized, oxidized rubredoxin was converted to iron-sulfur distances. The data were fitted with a least squares program to a model in which three distances R3 were kept equal and the fourth R1 was allowed to differ. The mean square error was constant over a region of this parameter space, becoming twice as large at R3 = 2.217, R1 = 2.389 and R3 = 2.268, R1 = 2.108 A. These values, which are the extreme differences allowed by the present data, are definitely closer to being equal than those found by the determination of the x-ray diffraction crystal structure of the similar protein from Clostridium pasteurianum. However, the average distance from our experiment is in excellent agreement with the average distance from the crystal structure determination. Preliminary EXAFS measurements were also made on the oxidized rubredoxin in solution at pH 7.0. The spectra were unchanged, indicating that the average iron-sulfur distance change is less than 0.02 A. Upon reduction the average iron-sulfur bond length increased by about 0.05 A. Since the EXAFS measurements can give accurate determinations of distances in proteins both in crystals and solution, the technique should be widely applicable. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
