- W2045677685 abstract "All of the membrane-embedded cofactors of the purple bacterial reaction centre have well-defined functional or structural roles, with the exception of the bacteriopheophytin (HB) located approximately half-way across the membrane on the so-called inactive- or B-branch of cofactors. Sequence alignments indicate that this bacteriochlorin cofactor is a conserved feature of purple bacterial reaction centres, and a pheophytin is also found at this position in the Photosystem-II reaction centre. Possible structural or functional consequences of replacing the HB bacteriopheophytin by bacteriochlorophyll were investigated in the Rhodobacter sphaeroides reaction centre through mutagenesis of residue Leu L185 to His (LL185H). Results from absorbance spectroscopy indicated that the LL185H mutant assembled with a bacteriochlorophyll at the HB position, but this did not affect the capacity of the reaction centre to support photosynthetic growth, or change the kinetics of charge separation along the A-branch of cofactors. It was also found that mutation of residue Ala M149 to Trp (AM149W) caused the reaction centre to assemble without an HB bacteriochlorin, demonstrating that this cofactor is not required for correct assembly of the reaction centre. The absence of a cofactor at this position did not affect the capacity of the reaction centre to support photosynthetic growth, or the kinetics of A-branch electron transfer. A combination of X-ray crystallography and FTIR difference spectroscopy confirmed that the HB cofactor was absent in the AM149W mutant, and that this had not produced any significant disturbance of the adjacent ubiquinol reductase (QB) site. The data are discussed with respect to possible functional roles of the HB bacteriopheophytin, and we conclude that the reason(s) for conservation of a bacteriopheophytin cofactor at this position in purple bacterial reaction centres are likely to be different from those underlying conservation of a pheophytin at the analogous position in Photosystem-II." @default.
