The protonation state of residues around the Qo binding site of the cyto-chrome bc1 complex from Paracoccus denitrificansand their interaction with bound quinone(s) was studied by a combined electrochemical and FTIR difference spectroscopic approach. Site-directed mutations of two groups of conserved residues were investigated: (a) acidic side chains located close to the surface and thought to participate in a water chain leading up to the heme bLedge, and (b) residues located in the vicinity of this site. . | ỊFEBS Journal Characterization of mutations in crucial residues around the Qo binding site of the cytochrome bc1 complex from Paracoccus denitrificans Thomas Kleinschroth1 Oliver Anderka1 Michaela Ritter2 Andreas Stocker1 2 Thomas A.

Site-directed mutations of two groups of conserved residues were investigated a acidic side chains located close to the surface and thought to participate in a water chain leading up to the heme bL edge and b residues located in the vicinity of this site. Interestingly most of the mutants retain a high degree of catalytic activity. E295Q E81Q and Y297F showed reduced stigmatellin affinity. On the basis of electrochemically induced FTIR difference spectra we suggest that E295 and D278 are protonated in the oxidized form or that their mutation perturbs protonated residues.
