MATERIALS AND METHODSE. coli K12 was grown in bulk (90-100 kg) on minimal media (Siegel et al, 1973; Grain Processing Corp, Muscatine, IA) and stored at 2.5-kg cakes at 77 K until used. E. coli NADPH-sulfite reductase was purified from this cell paste by published procedures (Siegel et al, 1973; Siegel & Davis, 1974) with the following minor modifications: The final agarose column step was omitted. The hemeprotein subunit was dissociated from the holoenzyme present after the second ammonium sulfate precipitation step by room temperature incubation in 3 M urea-10 mM KP¡(pH 7.7) for 30 min followed by DEAE-cellulose chromatography in 50 mM KP¡-4 M urea-100 µ EDTA (pH 7.7). The SiR-HP was further purified by application to a column of phenyl-Sepharose CL4B (Pharmacia) equilibrated in 100 mM KP¡(pH 7.7)—1.0 M ammonium sulfate followed by a step gradient of 0.5, 0.3, and 0.1 M ammonium sulfate in SBE. The isolated SiR-HP was divided into two pools by the purity index (v^ so/^ as?)· Protein with a purity index less than 1.75 was used for NMR studies while that with an index greater than 1.75 was used solely for heme extraction. In cases where only siroheme was desired, the final column step was omitted. Following isolation and dialysis vs SBE, the protein was concentrated by Amicon filtration to 110 µ and stored in liquid nitrogen until used. Concentrations were determined spectrophotometrically using an€ 591= 18.1 mM-1 cm-1 (Siegel et al, 1982). Later studies used sulfite reductase obtained from plasmid overproducers of the holoenzyme or the hemeprotein subunit. The holoenzyme overproducer consisted of a pT7T3 plasmid with cysl, cy¿ J, and cysG under native promoter control (Wu etal, 1991). The plasmid was grown in a strain of Salmonella typhimurium that was cysl-so that only the E. coli sulfite reductase was present. Cells were grown on minimal salts media (Medium E; Vogel & Bonner, 1956) at 37 C in a New Brunswick fermentor with a working volume of 174 L. Typical yields were 500-800 g of wet cell paste per run with 5-15 mg of sulfite reductase holoenzyme/g of cell paste. The isolation procedure for holoenzyme (Siegel et al, 1973) was modified
