Abstract: | Meniscus depletion sedimentation equilibrium ultracentrifuge experiments were performed on purified MoFe and Fe proteins of . The MoFe protein was found to have a molecular weight of 245,000, using an experimentally confirmed partial specific volume of 0.73. The MoFe protein formed one band on sodium dodecyl sulfate gel electrophoresis and had a subunit molecular weight of 56,000. The subunit molecular weight from ultracentrifuge experiments in 8 M urea was 61,000. The molecular weight of the Fe protein was calculated to be 60,500 in meniscus depletion experiments. Similar experiments in 8 M urea solvent indicated a subunit molecular weight of 30,000. A subunit molecular weight of 33,000 was obtained from sodium dodecyl sulfate gel electrophoresis experiments. |
