We apologize for Proteopedia being slow to respond. For the past two years, a new implementation of Proteopedia has been being built. Soon, it will replace this 18-year old system. All existing content will be moved to the new system at a date that will be announced here.

The cytochrome b6f complex contains 4 subunits: Cytf, Cytb6, Rieske iron-sulfur protein and subunit IV. Cytf has an internal chain of water molecules conserved in all its 3D structures. The water chain is assumed to be a proton wire. | The cytochrome b6f complex contains 4 subunits: Cytf, Cytb6, Rieske iron-sulfur protein and subunit IV.
