presence of an S = 0 [4Fe-4S]2+ cluster with complete cysteinyl-S coordination that cannot be reduced at potentials down to -650 mV, but can be oxidized by ferricyanide to an S = 1/2 [4Fe-4S]3+ state. The midpoint potential for the [4Fe-4S]3+/2+ couple is estimated to be +420 mV versus NHE. Results argue against a role for the cluster in mediating electron transport from ferredoxin to the active-site disulfide and suggest an alternative role for the cluster in stabilizing the one-electron-reduced intermediate. A mechanistic scheme is proposed involving sequential one-electron redox processes with the role of the [4Fe-4S]2+ cluster being to stabilize the thiyl radical formed by the initial one-electron reduction of the active-site disulfide
