Abstract
The haemoprotein SoxA is a central and essential component of the sulphur oxidation pathways of a wide- range of photosynthetic and non-photosynthetic bacteria. We have determined a structure for the as prepared oxidized enzyme. We now propose an experimental programme aimed at extending our understanding of the reactivity and redox chemistry of the enzyme using a combination of crystallographic, spectroscopic, electrochemical, genetic and biochemical methodologies.
