Biochemical and genetic characterization of PpcA, a periplasmic c-type cytochrome in Geobacter sulfurreducens
Open accessAbstract
A 9.6kDa periplasmic c-type cytochrome, designated PpcA, was purified from the Fe(III)-reducing bacterium Geobacter sulfurreducens and characterized. The purified protein is basic (pI 9.5), contains three haems and has an N-terminal amino acid sequence closely related to those of the previously described trihaem c7 cytochromes of Geobacter metallireducens and Desulfuromonas acetoxidans. The gene encoding PpcA was identified from the G. sulfurreducens genome using the N-terminal sequence, and encodes a protein of 71 amino acids (molecular mass 9.58kDa) with 49% identity to the c7 cytochrome of D. acetoxidans. In order to determine the physiological role of PpcA, a knockout mutant was prepared with a single-step recombination method. Acetate-dependent Fe(III) reduction was significantly inhibited in both growing cultures and cell suspensions of the mutant. When ppcA was expressed in trans, the full capacity for Fe(III) reduction with acetate was restored. The transfer of electrons from acetate to anthraquinone 2,6-disulphonate (AQDS; a humic acid analogue) and to U(VI) was also compromised in the mutant, but acetate-dependent reduction of fumarate was not altered. The rates of reduction of Fe(III), AQDS, U(VI) and fumarate were also the same in the wild type and ppcA mutant when hydrogen was supplied as the electron donor. When taken together with previous studies on other electron transport proteins in G. sulfurreducens, these results suggest that PpcA serves as an intermediary electron carrier from acetate to terminal Fe(III) reductases in the outer membrane, and is also involved in the transfer of electrons from acetate to U(VI) and humics.

The PpcA protein was able to reduce U(VI) in vitro, while a ppcA deletion mutant supplied with acetate as an electron donor had lower activity against U(VI).
“The protein was able to reduce U(VI) in vitro, while a ppcA deletion mutant supplied with acetate as an electron donor had lower activity against U(VI) [42].”
From Microbial reduction of metals and radionuclides (2003) · cites this paper as [42]
The Physiological role of PpcA section reports that deleting ppcA inhibited U(VI) reduction in cell suspensions when acetate was the electron donor. But the Role of PpcA in the reduction of U(VI) and humics section treats direct U(VI) reduction by PpcA as a possibility, not an established result; our copy does not report an in-vitro demonstration that the purified protein reduces U(VI). Page numbers were not available in the indexed passages. (LLM, conf=0.88)
Experimental — accuracy not yet measuredMore recent studies have identified a homologous cytochrome (PpcA), a trihaem periplasmic cytochrome c7 of G. sulfurreducens that may also play a role in U(VI) reduction.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
