Figure 3.
Fig. 3. Phylogenetic topology of structurally characterized enzymes functionally and/or structurally related to RdxR. (A) FNR, plant-type ferredoxin reductase; AdxR, adrenodoxin reductase; AIF, apoptosis inducing factor; LpdR, lipoamide reductase; TptR, trypanothione reductase. Sequence identity to RdxR is indicated by percentage. (B) Superposition of uncomplexed (gray) and complexed RdxR (colored as in Fig. 1A). Cofactors are shown as ball-and-stick models. For clarity, the position of Rdx is indicated by a brown sphere. (C) Comparison of the Rdx (red) and Trx (black) binding sites of RdxR and TrxR. For clarity, only the molecular surface of RdxR is shown. G^0 optimized ET rates (42) between FAD and each point of the RdxR surface are indicated by a color gradient (red, high ET rate; green, medium; blue, low). (Inset) Close-up view of the cofactors involved.
