Selective interaction of ferricyanide with cluster I ofClostridium pasteurianum2[Fe4S4] ferredoxin

Abstract
Treatment of Clostridium pasteurianum ferredoxin (CpFd) with stoichiometric amounts of potassium ferricyanide results in the specific conversion of cluster I into a Fe3S4 + species while leaving cluster II unaltered. Ferricyanide‐treated CpFd derivative has been purified and characterized through biochemical and spectroscopical techniques. The cluster conversion process is reversible and reconstitution of native CpFd has been afforded under appropriate conditions.
