Associations of frdA with chemical compounds

  • In contrast, a third mutant (the narX32 mutant) required molybdenum but did not exhibit full repression of frdA-lacZ expression even when nitrate was present [15].
  • However, the mutation did not impair the ability of the membrane-bound fumarate reductase complex to function with succinate as substrate, as evidenced by unchanged turnover numbers for phenazine methosulfate and 2,3-dimethoxy-5-methyl-6-pentyl-1,4-benzoquinone (a quinone analogue) reductase activities [7].
  • To better define the individual roles of the FrdC and FrdD polypeptides in FRD complex formation and quinone binding, we selectively mutagenized the frdCD genes [8].
  • The catalytic domain of fumarate reductase consists of the FrdA subunit, which contains the active site, and a FAD prosthetic group covalently attached to His44, plus the FrdB subunit which contains at least two of the three nonidentical iron-sulfur clusters of the enzyme [10].
  • The data confirm that cysteine 247 of FrdA is responsible for the N-ethylmaleimide sensitivity shown by fumarate reductase but is not required for catalytic activity or the tight-binding of oxalacetate, as previously thought [19].
