1H one-dimensional and two-dimensional NMR spectra have been recorded for the oxidized and reduced forms of the high-potential iron-sulfur protein (HiPIP) from Rhodopseudomonas globiformis which has the highest known reduction potential. The spectrum of the oxidized protein is similar to that of Chromatium vinosum and Rhodocyclus gelatinosus HiPIP but different from that of the HiPIP II from Ectothiorhodospira halophila. Surprisingly, site-specific assignment has shown that in the oxidized protein the distribution of oxidation numbers within the cluster is very similar to that found for E. halophila HiPIP II and different from that of the other two proteins. The spectrum of the reduced species is very similar to that of all other HiPIPs known to date, indicating very similar electronic and geometric structures for the reduced forms. These findings are discussed in terms of cluster structure in HiPIPs and of redox potentials.
