One- and two-electron reduction of molybdate reversibly bound to the archaeal tungstate/molybdate transporter WtpA

Abstract

Reversible binding of the tetrahedral oxoanions MoO42− and WO42− to two carboxylato ligands of the soluble scavenger protein WtpA from the hyperthermophilic archaeon Pyrococcus furiosus enforces a quasi-octahedral MO6 coordination in which the +VI oxidation state is destabilized.
