Abstract:
:The effect of substituting Pro-L209 with Tyr, Phe, Glu, and Thr in photosynthetic reaction centers (RCs) from Rhodobacter sphaeroides was investigated by monitoring the light-induced FTIR absorption changes associated with the photoreduction of the secondary quinone Q(B). Pro-L209 is close to a chain of ordered water molecules connecting Q(B) to the bulk phase. In wild-type RCs, two distinct main Q(B) binding sites (distal and proximal to the non-heme iron) have been described in the literature. The X-ray structures of the mutant RCs Pro-L209 --> Tyr, Pro-L209 --> Phe, and Pro-L209 --> Glu have revealed that Q(B) occupies a proximal, intermediate, and distal position, respectively [Kuglstatter, A., Ermler, U., Michel, H., Baciou, L., and Fritzsch, G. (2001) Biochemistry 40, 4253-4260]. FTIR absorption changes associated with the reduction of Q(B) in Pro-L209 --> Phe RCs reconstituted with (13)C-labeled ubiquinone show a highly specific IR fingerprint for the C=O and C=C modes of Q(B) upon selective labeling at C(1) or C(4). This IR fingerprint is similar to those of wild-type RCs and the Pro-L209 --> Tyr mutant [Breton, J., Boullais, C., Mioskowski, C., Sebban, P., Baciou, L., and Nabedryk, E. (2002) Biochemistry 41, 12921-12927], demonstrating that equivalent interactions occur between neutral Q(B) and the protein in wild-type and mutant RCs. It is concluded that in all RCs, neutral Q(B) in its functional state occupies a unique binding site which is favored to be the proximal site. This result contrasts with the multiple Q(B) binding sites found in crystal structures. With respect to wild-type RCs, the largest FTIR spectral changes upon Q(B)(-) formation are observed for the Phe-L209 and Tyr-L209 mutants which undergo similar protein structural changes and perturbations of the semiquinone modes. Smaller changes are observed for the Glu-L209 mutant, while the vibrational properties of the Thr-L209 mutant are essentially the same as those for native RCs.
