Simple Iron-Sulfur Proteins: Methodology for Establishing the Type of Center

  • Conference paper
The Biological Chemistry of Iron

Part of the book series: NATO Advanced Study Institutes Series ((ASIC,volume 89))

  • 186 Accesses

Abstract

In this article we have put together available information on how to determine the structures of the different types of iron-sulfur centers. The discovery of some new basic structures especially the ∣3Fe-3S∣ core has brought a renewed interest into the field of iron-sulfur proteins.
