with a periplasmically oriented quinone binding site of the enzyme
-
since phytoene desaturation responds to the redox state of quinones, which is adjusted by the respiratory redox pathway, the two reactions must be regarded as being mechanistically linked. Using redox titrations, it is shown that the optimal activity lies in the range of the midpoint potential of the plastoquinone/plastohydroquinone redox couple
-
lysyl oxidase and 4 LOX-like proteins LOXL, LOXL2, LOXL3, and LOXL4 all contain conserved lysyl and tyrosyl residues that may contribute to quinone cofactor formation
-
contains a quinone similar to but not identical with the prosthetic group of EC 1.1.99.8
-
heme bD is distal to NarGH and constitutes part of the quinone binding and oxidation site (Q-site) through the axially coordinating His66 residue and one of the heme bD propionate groups. Bound quinone participates in hydrogen bonds with both the imidazole of His66 and the heme propionate
