REDUCED PSEUDOAZURIN
Overview
The crystal structures of oxidized and reduced pseudoazurins from a, denitrifying bacterium, Achromobacter cycloclastes IAM1013, have been, determined at 1.35- and 1.6-A resolutions, respectively. The copper site, in the oxidized state exhibits a distorted tetrahedral structure like, those of other pseudoazurins. However, not only a small change of the, copper geometry, but concerted peptide bond flips are identified. The, imidazole ring of remote His6 has a hydrogen bonding distance of 2.73 A, between N-delta1(His6) and O-gamma1(Thr36) in the oxidized protein. When, the protein is reduced at pH 6.0, the imidazole ring rotates by 30.3, degrees and moves 1.00 A away from the position of the oxidized state. A, new hydrogen bond between N-epsilon2(His6) and O-epsilon1(Glu4) is formed, with a ... [(full description)]
