The alternative nitrogenase ofRhodobacter capsulatus, isolated from anifHDKdeletion mutant, has been purified to near homogeneity and identified as an ‘iron only’ nitrogenase. The dithionite‐reduced component 1 (‘FeFe protein’) or this enzyme showed an EPR spectrum consisting of two components: a minorS= 12 signal atg= 1.93 and a very characteristicS= 32 signal of near‐stoichiometric intensity atg= 5.44. This resonance is very close to the highest possiblegvalue (g= 5.46) for the coinciding two intradoublet subspectra of anS= 32 system or maximal rhombicity (E/D= 0.33)). The deviation from axial symmetry (increasingE/D) correlates with the stability, activity and substrate selectivity of the different (Mo, V, Fe) nitrogenases.
