Abstract excerpt
Escherichia coli fumarate reductase (FRD) is a four-subunit enzyme that catalyzes the terminal step in anaerobic respiration to fumarate. The hydrophobic FrdC and FrdD subunits anchor the FrdA and FrdB catalytic subunits to the inner surface of the cytoplasmic membrane and are required for the enzyme to interact with quinones. Thirty-five single-site mutations were constructed in the FrdC and FrdD polypeptides by...
