Fe hydrogenase
Fe hydrogenase is an enzyme found in some microorganisms that facilitates the production and consumption of hydrogen gas (Hâ‚‚). It contains iron atoms in its active site, which enable it to efficiently catalyze the conversion of protons into hydrogen molecules or vice versa. This process plays a role in microbial energy metabolism and can impact environmental hydrogen cycling. Fe hydrogenase is notable for operating under mild conditions and its potential applications in sustainable hydrogen production and bioenergy research.
