Abstract
Nonheme iron protein isolated from lupine (Lupinus luteus L.) root nodules was studied by electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) spectroscopy. This pro tein was capable of reducing oxidized leghemoglobin (Lb) in the presence of NADH. The isolated nonheme iron protein, Lb reductase, was characterized b y an EPR signal with g 1.94, which indicates the attribution of this protei n to the Fe-S group of proteins.
