    Biotin synthase is an AdoMet-dependent radical enzyme that catalyzes the insertion of an FeS cluster-derived sulfur atom into dethiobiotin. The dimeric enzyme is purified containing one [2Fe-2S]2+ cluster per monomer, but it is most active when reconstituted with an additional [4Fe-4S]2+ cluster per monomer. Using Mössbauer spectroscopy coupled with differential reconstitution of each cluster with 57Fe, we show that the reconstituted enzyme has approximately 1:1 [2Fe-2S]2+ and [4Fe-4S]2+ clusters and that the [4Fe-4S]2+ cluster is assembled at an alternate site not previously occupied by the [2Fe-2S]2+ cluster. These data suggest that biotin synthase is evolved to simultaneously accommodate two different clusters with unique roles in catalysis.
