Carbon monoxide dehydrogenase/acetyl-CoA synthase (CODH/ACS) is a bifunctional enzyme that catalyzes the reversible reduction of carbon dioxide into carbon monoxide and the coupled synthesis of acetyl-CoA from the carbon monoxide produced. Exposure of CODH/ACS from Moorella thermoacetica to carbon monoxide gives rise to several infrared bands in the 2100-1900 cm(-1) spectral region that are attributed to the formation of metal-coordinated carbon monoxide species. Infrared bands attributable to M-CO are not detected in the as-isolated enzyme, suggesting that the enzyme does not contain intrinsic metal-coordinated CO ligands. A band detected at 1996 cm(-1) in the CO-flushed enzyme is assigned as arising from CO binding to a metal center in cluster A of the ACS subunit. The frequency of this band is most consistent with it arising from a terminally coordinated Ni(I) carbonyl. Multiple infrared bands at 2078, 2044, 1970, 1959, and 1901 cm(-1) are attributed to CO binding at cluster C of the CODH subunit. All infrared bands attributed to metal carbonyls decay in a time-dependent fashion as CO(2) appears in the solution. These observations are consistent with the enzyme-catalyzed oxidation of carbon monoxide until it is completely depleted from solution during the course of the experiments.
