  ABSTRACT  
 
A soluble cytochrome b(558) from the purple phototropic bacterium Ectothiorhodospira vacuolata was completely sequenced by a combination of automated Edman degradation and mass spectrometry. The protein, with a measured mass of 10,094.7 Da, contains 90 residues and binds a single protoheme. Unexpectedly, the sequence shows homology to eukaryotic cytochromes b(5). As no prokaryotic homologue had been reported so far, we developed a protocol for the expression, purification, and crystallization of recombinant cytochrome b(558). The structure was solved by molecular replacement to a resolution of 1.65 A. It shows that cytochrome b(558) is indeed the first bacterial cytochrome b(5) to be characterized and differs from its eukaryotic counterparts by the presence of a disulfide bridge and a four-residue insertion in front of the sixth ligand (histidine). Eukaryotes contain a variety of b(5) homologues, including soluble and membrane-bound multifunctional proteins as well as multidomain enzymes such as sulfite oxidase, fatty-acid desaturase, nitrate reductase, and lactate dehydrogenase. A search of the Mycobacterium tuberculosis genome showed that a previously unidentified gene encodes a fatty-acid desaturase with an N-terminal b(5) domain. Thus, it may provide another example of a bacterial b(5) homologue.

The most recent references are shown first. Citation data come partly from CiteXplore and partly from an automated harvesting procedure. Note that this is likely to be only a partial list as not all journals are covered by either method. However, we are continually building up the citation data so more and more references will be included with time. Where a reference describes a PDB structure, the PDB code is shown on the right.
