Functions of conserved tryptophan residues of the core light-harvesting complex of Rhodobacter sphaeroides.

Biochemistry - 11 Mar 1997

Sturgis J N, Olsen J D, Robert B, Hunter C N

Abstract excerpt

We have examined mutants in the core light-harvesting complex of Rhodobacter sphaeroides in which the tryptophan residues located at positions alpha+11, beta+6, and beta+9 have been mutated to each of the three other aromatic amino acids, namely tyrosine, phenylalanine, and histidine. We confirm that the alpha+11 residue and show that the beta+9 residue each form a hydrogen bond to a C2-acetyl group of a BChl...
