Structure of a thermophilic cyanobacterial b(6)f-type Rieske protein
Acta Crystallogr.,Sect.D, 68:1400-1408, 2012

PubMed Abstract: The `Rieske protein' PetC is one of the key subunits of the cytochrome b(6)f complex. Its Rieske-type [2Fe-2S] cluster participates in the photosynthetic electron-transport chain. Overexpression and careful structure analysis at 2.0 Å resolution of the extrinsic soluble domain of PetC from the thermophilic cyanobacterium Thermosynechococcus elongatus BP-1 enabled in-depth spectroscopic and structural characterization and suggested novel structural features. In particular, both the protein structure and the positions of the internal water molecules unexpectedly showed a higher similarity to eukaryotic PetCs than to other prokaryotic PetCs. The structure also revealed a deep pocket on the PetC surface which is oriented towards the membrane surface in the whole complex. Its surface properties suggest a binding site for a hydrophobic compound and the complete conservation of the pocket-forming residues in all known PetC sequences indicates the functional importance of this pocket in the cytochrome b(6)f complex.
