X-RAY STRUCTURE OF FERRIC CYTOCHROME C-550 FROM PARACOCCUS VERSUTUS
Overview
The structure of cytochrome c-550 from the nonphotosynthetic bacteria Paraccocus versutus has been solved by X-ray crystallography to 1.90 A resolution, and reveals a high structural homology to other bacterial cytochromes c(2). The effect of replacing the axial heme-iron methionine ligand with a lysine residue on protein structure and unfolding has been assessed using the M100K variant. From X-ray structures at 1.95 and 1.55 A resolution it became clear that the amino group of the lysine side chain coordinates to the heme-iron. Structural differences compared to the wild-type protein are confined to the lysine ligand loop connecting helices four and five. In the heme cavity an additional water molecule is found which participates in an H-bonding interaction with the lysine ligand. Under cryo-conditions extra electron density in the lysine ligand loop is revealed, leading to residues K97 to T101 being modeled with a double main-chain conformation. Upon unfolding, dissociation of the lysine ligand from the heme-iron is shown to be pH dependent, with NMR data consistent with the occurrence of a ligand exchange mechanism similar to that seen for the wild-type protein.
