Abstract
The structure of the respiratory nitrate reductase (NapAB) from Rhodobacter sphaeroides, the periplasmic heterodimeric enzyme responsible for the first step in the denitrification process, has been determined at a resolution of 3.2 A. The di-heme electron transfer small subunit NapB binds to the large subunit with cluster of NapA. A total of 57 residues at the N- and C-terminal extremities of NapB adopt an extended conformation, embracing the NapA subunit and largely contributing to the total area of 5,900 A(2) buried in the complex. Complex formation was studied further by measuring the variation of the redox potentials of all the cofactors upon binding. The marked effects observed are interpreted in light of the three-dimensional structure and depict a plasticity that contributes to an efficient electron transfer in the complex from the heme I of NapB to the molybdenum catalytic site of NapA.
Figure 1.
Figure 1. Stereo views of the overall fold of the NapAB complex. (a) NapA is represented as a white ribbon, and NapB is colored from blue to red from the N to the C terminus, respectively. Molybdenum and iron atoms are represented as CPK models. (b) The same view as in a, rotated by 90°. NapB is white. The four structural domains of NapA are colored as follows: domain I, red; domain II, green; domain III, yellow; domain IV, blue. Domain definitions were taken from Dias et al9.

Figure 2. Comparisons of NapAB complex with the structures of the uncomplexed subunits. (a) Ribbon diagram of the NapAB complex. NapA is colored according to the r.m.s. deviations obtained by a superposition with the structure of the monomeric NapA from D. desulfuricans: residues with r.m.s. deviation <1.5 Å are in gold, between 1.5 and 2 Å in orange and >2.0 Å in red. Sequence insertions are green. The NapB subunit is blue. (b) Superimposition of the NapAB structure (NapB is colored in red with the hemes in light colors, and the NapA subunit is represented according to its surface) with the structure of the proteolytic fragment of NapB from H. influenzae (in green with the hemes in dark colors).

Figure 3.
Figure 3. The overall fold of NAP. (a) Stereoview of the structure of NAP from Desulfovibrio desulfuricans ATCC 27774 with the different domains coloured: domain I (residues 4–61, 464–492 and 517–561) in red; domain II (residues 62–135, 347–463 and 493–516) in green; domain III (residues 136–346) in yellow; and domain IV (residues 562–723) in blue. The funnel-like cavity, which provides access to the molybdenum catalytic site, can be seen on the upper part of the molecule between domains II and III. (b) Stereoview Cα trace of NAP for domains I and III with residues labelled. (c) Stereoview Cα trace of NAP for domains II and IV with residues labelled. The MGD cofactors and the [4Fe–4S] cluster are shown in ball-and-stick representation. (Figures were prepared with the programs MOLSCRIPT [75] and Raster-3D [76].)
