Dinitrogenase reductase(nifH)
The nifH encoding dinitrogenase reductase(also called Fe protein) is an important gene in nitrogen fixation. The protein is a homodimer bridged by an intersubunit [4Fe-4S] cluster that serves as the obligate electron donor to the MoFe protein. Sequence and Features

Extinction coefficients:This protein does not contain any Trp residues. Experience shows that
this could result in more than 10% error in the computed extinction coefficient.
Extinction coefficients are in units of M-1 cm-1, at 280 nm measured in water.
Ext. coefficient 12295
Abs 0.1% (=1 g/l) 0.390, assuming all pairs of Cys residues form cystines
Ext. coefficient 11920
Abs 0.1% (=1 g/l) 0.378, assuming all Cys residues are reduced
Estimated half-life:The N-terminal of the sequence considered is M (Met).
The estimated half-life is: 30 hours (mammalian reticulocytes, in vitro).
>20 hours (yeast, in vivo).
>10 hours (Escherichia coli, in vivo).
Instability index:The instability index (II) is computed to be 39.05
This classifies the protein as stable.
Aliphatic index: 92.50
Grand average of hydropathicity (GRAVY): -0.161
