Benchmark Study of Redox Potential Calculations for Iron-Sulfur Clusters in Proteins
Redox potentials have been calculated for 12 different iron-sulfur sites of 6 different types with 1-4 iron ions. Structures were optimized with combined quantum mechanical and molecular mechanical (QM/MM) methods, and the redox potentials were calculated using the QM/MM energies, single-point QM methods in a continuum solvent or by QM/MM thermodynamic cycle perturbations. We show that the best re
