Intramembrane Bis-Heme Motif for Transmembrane Electron Transport Conserved in a Yeast Iron Reductase and the Human NADPH Oxidase
Open accessAbstract
A plasma membrane iron reductase, required for cellular iron acquisition by Saccharomyces cerevisiae, and the human phagocytic NADPH oxidase, implicated in cellular defense, contain low potential plasma membrane b cytochromes that share elements of structure and function. Four critical histidine residues in the FRE1 protein of the iron reductase were identified by site-directed mutagenesis. Individual mutation of each histidine to alanine eliminated the entire heme spectrum without affecting expression of the apoprotein, documenting the specificity of the requirement for the histidine residues. These critical residues are predicted to coordinate a bis-heme structure between transmembrane domains of the FRE1 protein. The histidine residues are conserved in the related gp91(phox) protein of the NADPH oxidase of human granulocytes, predicting the sites of heme coordination in that protein complex. Similarly spaced histidine residues have also been implicated in heme binding by organelle b cytochromes with little overall sequence similarity to the plasma membrane b cytochromes. This bis-heme motif may play a role in transmembrane electron transport by distinct families of polytopic b cytochromes.

“The transmembrane domain includes four conserved histidines that serve as binding sites for two heme moieties bound between helices III and V (288, 613), and the flavoprotein domain binds the cofactor FAD and includes a binding site for NADPH (49, 480, 613, 980).”

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.
