The O<sub>2</sub> reactivity of an artificial biomolecular hydrogenase, the nickel binding protein (NBP) is investigated. Kinetic analyses revealed a complete 4e<sup>-</sup> reduction of O<sub>2</sub> to H<sub>2</sub>O under catalytic conditions with associated k<sup>0</sup> for ET in the order of 10<sup>-6</sup> cm s<sup>-1</sup>. Protein destabilization and S oxygenation are contributing factors to the deactivation of NBP under oxic conditions. Computational studies provided insight into the S ...[more]
