In extracts of the unicellular cyanobacterium Gloeothece, the Fe-protein of nitrogenase can be separated by SDS-PAGE into two antigenically identifiable components. Unlike the situation in photosynthetic bacteria such as Rhodospirillum rubrum, these two forms do not arise from covalent modification of the protein by ADP-ribosylation.
