Probing magnetic properties of the reduced [2Fe-2S] cluster of the ferredoxin from Arthrospira platensis by 1H ENDOR spectroscopy

Abstract: The 1H electron nuclear double resonance (ENDOR) spectra in frozen solutions of the reduced [2Fe-2S] cluster in ferredoxin from Arthrospira (Spirulina) platensis have been measured at low temperatures (5-20 K) and simulated using orientational selection methods. The analysis confirmed the existence of a single paramagnetic species with iron valence states II and III connected uniquely to the cluster irons. The experimental ENDOR spectra were fitted to a model including the spin distribution on the centre, the … Show more

“…In addition several NH-or OH-groups of neighboring amino acids are within hydrogen bonding distance to the sulfurs of the coordinated cysteine tigands to Fel, which may raise its microscopic redox potential [3,23,24]. Our orientation-selective ENDOR study has confirmed this assignment [14].…”

“…1. We have presented earlier the first analysis of the orientation-selective proton ENDOR spectra of a protein containing a [2Fe-2S] center in Arthrospira (formerly Spirulina)platensis [14]. A. platensis ferredoxin belongs to the former class and is representative of a wide range of clusters in electron-transfer proteins in plants, vertebrates and bacteria [1].…”

“…Using this specific direction for the single site occurring in that HiPIP, a non-cysteine-bound, dipolar proton of the residue phenylalanine 44 carne into play which gave a prominent, discemable interaction in the ENDOR spectra. This was different from typical findings in [Fe2S2] clusters in which mainly the cysteine-bound [3-pro-tons were responsible for the major couplings [8,9]. One of the goals of the present study on E. halophila HiPIP I was therefore to test by site-directed mutagenesis the role of the respective residue in this HiPIE The other airo conceros the site isomerism discussed above.…”

“…In [Fe2S2] clusters like in plant and vertebrate ferredoxins or in the "Rieske" cluster, the extra electron produced upon reduction of the complex resides on one specific iron. This has been convincingly proven by M6ssbauer, paramagnetic NMR and electron-nuclear double resonance (ENDOR) spectroscopy [6][7][8]. It appears that in the all-cysteine coordinated [FezS_, ] ferredoxins the site specificity is governed by the degree of solvent exposure and the number of polarizable protons (e.g., NH) in the polypeptide backbone vicinity [6,8,9].…”
