Abstract
Cytochrome c(3) (M(r) 13000) is a low redox potential cytochrome specific of the anaerobic metabolism in sulfate-reducing bacteria. This tetrahemic cytochrome is an intermediate between the [Fe]-hydrogenase and the cytochrome Hmc in Desulfovibrio vulgaris Hildenborough strain. The present work describes the structural model of the cytochrome c(3)-[Fe]-hydrogenase complex obtained by nuclear magnetic resonance restrained docking. This model connects the distal cluster of the [Fe]-hydrogenase to heme 4 of the cytochrome, the same heme found in the interaction with cytochrome Hmc. This result gives evidence that cytochrome c(3) is an electron shuttle between the periplasmic hydrogenase and the Hmc membrane-bound complex.

Fig. 3. A: Ribbon representation of the best representative structure of the [Fe]-hydrogenase–cytochrome c[3] complex. The [Fe]-hydrogenase is the left polypeptide chain, the large subunit is colored in beige; the small subunit is colored in yellow and the ferredoxin-like domain in blue, the iron clusters are in green. Cytochrome c[3] is the right polypeptide chain colored in blue, the heme groups are in red. B: Zoom-in view of the interface region, highlighting the residues involved in interatomic contacts within the cytochrome c[3]–[Fe]-hydrogenase complex. Heme 4 and cytochrome c[3] residues are labeled in red, distal [4Fe–4S] cluster and residues of [Fe]-hydrogenase are labeled in green.
