A Native LH1-RC-HiPIP Supercomplex from an Extremophilic Phototroph.
Commun Biol, 8:42-42, 2025

PubMed Abstract: Halorhodospira (Hlr.) halophila strain BN9622 is an extremely halophilic and alkaliphilic purple phototrophic bacterium and has been widely used as a model for exploring the osmoadaptive and photosynthetic strategies employed by phototrophic extreme halophiles that enable them to thrive in hypersaline environments. Here we present the cryo-EM structures of (1) a unique native Hlr. halophila triple-complex formed from light-harvesting (LH1), the reaction center (RC), and high-potential iron-sulfur protein (HiPIP) at 2.44 Å resolution, and (2) a HiPIP-free LH1-RC complex at 2.64 Å resolution. Differing from the LH1 in the Hlr. halophila LH1-LH2 co-complex where LH1 encircles LH2, the RC-associated LH1 complex consists of 16 (rather than 18) αβ-subunits circularly surrounding the RC. These distinct forms of LH1 indicate that the number of subunits in a Hlr. halophila LH1 complex is flexible and its size is a function of the photocomplex it encircles. Like LH1 in the LH1-LH2 co-complex, the RC-associated LH1 complex also contained two forms of αβ-polypeptides and both dimeric and monomeric molecules of bacteriochlorophyll a. The majority of the isolated Hlr. halophila LH1-RC complexes contained the electron donor HiPIP bound to the surface of the RC cytochrome subunit near the heme-1 group. The bound HiPIP consisted of an N-terminal functional domain and a long C-terminal extension firmly attached to the cytochrome subunit. Despite overall highly negative surface-charge distributions for both the cytochrome subunit and HiPIP, the interface between the two proteins was relatively uncharged and neutral, forming a pathway for electron tunneling. The structure of the Hlr. halophila LH1-RC-HiPIP complex provides insights into the mechanism of light energy acquisition coupled with a long-distance electron donating process toward the charge separation site in a multi-extremophilic phototroph.
