However, structural determinants of efficient H 2 binding to their [NiFe] active site are not properly understood. Here, we present crystallographic and vibrational spectroscopic insights into the unexplored structure of the H 2 -binding [NiFe] intermediate. Using an F 420 -reducing [NiFe]-hydrogenase from Methanosarcina barkeri as a model enzyme, we show that the protein backbone provides a strained chelating scaffold that tunes the [NiFe] active site for efficient H 2 binding and conversion. The protein matrix also directs H 2 diffusion to the [NiFe] site via two gas channels and allows the distribution of electrons between functional protomers through a subunit-bridging FeS cluster. Our findings emphasize the relevance of an atypical Ni coordination, thereby providing a blueprint for the design of bio-inspired H 2 conversion catalysts.
