The genes encoding these proteins were referred to as the CCB genes for c ofactor assembly of complex C (cytochrome b 6 f) targeting subunit B (cytochrome b 6 encoded by the petB gene) . That is just like the FeS cluster in complex III. This has precluded the propagation of inactivating mutations and complicated molecular genetic analysis. (, It is proposed that the lipid DOPC (yellow/red/blue sticks) is bound weakly in the niche formed between the F and G TMH, which represents the LHCII kinase (shown as cartoon. cytochrome b6f complex assembly. 1988 Oct 5; 263 (28):14323–14333. The electron transport chain through cytochrome b6f is rather short. Cytochrome c oxidase assembly factor 3, also known as Coiled-coil domain-containing protein 56, or Mitochondrial translation regulation assembly intermediate of cytochrome c oxidase protein of 12 kDa is a protein that in humans is encoded by the COA3 gene. The electron is first passed to a "high-potential FeS cluster", or Rieske cluster. There would be four protons output for four electrons initially input. 2017 Dec 14;12(12):e0189532. Potential lipid binding site in cyt b 6 f complex of C. reinhardtii, Figure 11. cytochrome complex assembly / oxidation-reduction process / photosynthesis. Now, that was starting from the fully oxidised state. EMBO J. Abstract. Copper would therefore be a better electron acceptor, and would be useful in creating a greater driving force for electron transfer later in the electron transport chain. Required for the assembly of the ubiquinol-cytochrome c reductase complex (mitochondrial respiratory chain complex III or cytochrome b-c1 complex), mediating cytochrome b recruitment and probably stabilization within the complex. Crivellone MD, Wu MA, Tzagoloff A. Explain why. Once … Alignments, domain architectures and domain combinations are … Cytochrome b6f is shown in a simplified form in a diagram below. The 4 large subunits of the cytochrome b6-f complex are cytochrome b6, subunit IV (17 kDa polypeptide, petD), cytochrome f and the Rieske protein, while the 4 small subunits are petG, petL, petM and petN.

For more information contact us at info@libretexts.org or check out our status page at https://status.libretexts.org. On that basis alone (and ignoring any differences in the coordination environment), we might expect a more positive reduction potential on a copper ion than an iron ion. gray) binding site. Photosyn. The roles of the membrane‐spanning region and haem‐binding site of cytochrome f on assembly of cytochrome f into the cytochrome bf complex were examined by incubating 35 S‐labelled chimeric cytochrome f precursor proteins with isolated pea chloroplasts, as described above, followed by fractionation of thylakoid membrane complexes by nondenaturing gel electrophoresis. The cytochrome b 6 f complex is a dimer, with each monomer composed of eight subunits. Homoplastomic knockout lines of the three genes have been generated in tobacco ( Nicotiana tabacum ‘Petit Havana’) to analyze and compare their roles in assembly … The rise and plateau curve for ccs4 is a signature of a specific block in electron transfer at the level of the cytochrome b 6 f complex because of its impaired assembly in the absence of membrane-bound holocytochrome f. Crofts A, Hacker B, Barquera B, Yun CH, Gennis R. Structure and function of the bc-complex of Rhodobacter sphaeroides. The electron is first passed to a "high-potential FeS cluster", or Rieske cluster. That first electron travels to the Rieske FeS cluster, then to a cytochrome f (that's a cytochrome b found in plants), and finally to a soluble, mobile electron carrier, plastocyanin. Addition of an electron will result in a negative charge, 1-. et al., 2004 A homolog of prokaryotic thiol disulfide transporter Turkarslan, S., C. Sanders, S. Ekici and F.
