  1. Ribbon representation of the Desulfovibrio gigas Ni-Fe hydrogenase structure (PDB code 1FRV). Colour­codes: the small subunit (chain A) = dark cyan, the large subunit (chain B) = violet.
  2. The redox centres of Ni-Fe hydrogenase and their ligand residues only. [Fe4S4]dist = bottom, [Fe3S4] = middle, [Fe4S4]prox = top, Ni-Fe centre = top right.
  3. As a, the small subunit (chain A) only. Colour­codes: N­terminal IS domain = cyan; C­terminal IIS domain = green.
  4. As a, the large subunit (chain B) only.
All drawings were produced by using the program MOLSCRIPT [2].
