    Abstract:
    The distance between fluorescein mercuric acetate (FMA), attached to the HS-group of Fe- and Mo-Fe-protein, and the nearest iron-sulphur cluster (ISC) was determined. For Fe-protein the distance was 18--20 A and for Mo-Fe-protein 12--14 A. The distance between Fe-protein FMA and the nearest Mo-protein ISC determined by complementation of the labelled Fe-protein and native Mo-Fe-protein was 14--16 A. The distance between MO-OFe-protein ISC and complement Fe-protein ISC was 18--20 A. A te-protein ISC permitted to suppose that the electron was transfered from Fe-protein ISC to Mo-Fe-protein ISC by the contact of the ISC or with the help of ATP molecule.
