Novel Approaches to Exploit Microbial Hydrogen Metabolism... 

In the European program COST (European CO-operation in the Field of Scientific and Technical Research) 8.41 Biological and Biochemical Diversity of Hydrogen Metabolism the main objective is to pool interrelated European expertise in order to understand the structural and molecular basis of the functions, as well as the factors that influence the activity and stability of hydrogenase enzymes. 

Another interesting response in hydrogen metabolism was observed by Hoch et al. [27] They found that N2-fixing organisms exposed to D2 in the presence of N2 formed HD. They referred to this as an exchange reaction. Later Bulen [28] indicated that it was improper to refer to this as an exchange reaction as it involved electron transfer. He also pointed to the factors in common between H2 inhibition and HD formation.
