Abstract

Nuclear inelastic scattering of 57Fe labeled [NiFe] hydrogenase is shown to give information on different states of the enzyme. It was thus possible to detect and assign Fe-CO and Fe-CN bending and stretching vibrations of the active site outside the spectral range of the Fe-S cluster normal modes.
