The intracellular location of membrane‐associated (NiFe) and (NiFeSe) hydrogenases ofDesulfovibrio vulgariswas determined using pre‐embedding and post‐embedding immunoelectron microscopic procedures. Polyclonal antisera directed against the purified (NiFe) and (NiFeSe) hydrogenases were raised in rabbits. One‐day‐old cultures ofD. vulgaris, grown on a lactate/sulfate medium, were used for all experiments in these studies. For post‐embedding labeling studies cells were fixed with 0.2% glutaraldehyde and 0.3% formaldehyde, dehydrated with methanol, and embedded in the low‐temperature resin Lowicryl K4M.Our post‐embedding studies using antibody‐gold or protein‐A‐gold as electron‐dense markers revealed the location of the two hydrogenases exclusively at the cell periphery; the precise membrane location was then demonstrated by pre‐embedding labeling. Spheroplasts were incubated with the polyclonal antisera against (NiFe) and (NiFeSe) hydrogenase followed by ferritin‐linked secondary antibodies prior to embedding and sectioning. The observed labeling pattern unequivocally revealed that the antigenic reactive sites of the (NiFe) hydrogenase are located in the near vicinity of the cytoplasmic membrane facing into the periplasmic space, whereas the (NiFeSe) hydrogenase is associated with the cytoplasmic side of the cytoplasmic membrane.
