FunFam 8184: Cytochrome b6-f complex iron-sulfur subunit

There are 1 EC terms in this cluster

Please note: EC annotations are assigned to the full protein sequence rather than individual protein domains. Since a given protein can contain multiple domains, it is possible that some of the annotations below come from additional domains that occur in the same protein, but have been classified elsewhere in CATH.

Note: The search results have been sorted with the annotations that are found most frequently at the top of the list. The results can be filtered by typing text into the search box at the top of the table.

EC Term Annotations Evidence
Plastoquinol--plastocyanin reductase. [EC: 1.10.9.1]
Plastoquinol + 2 oxidized plastocyanin + 2 H(+)(Side 1) = plastoquinone + 2 reduced plastocyanin + 4 H(+)(Side 2).
  • Contains two b-type cytochromes, two c-type cytochromes (cn and f), and a [2Fe-2S] Rieske cluster.
  • The enzyme plays a key role in photosynthesis, transferring electrons from photosystem II (EC 1.10.3.9) to photosystem I (EC 1.97.1.12).
  • Cytochrome c-552 can act as acceptor instead of plastocyanin, but more slowly.
  • In chloroplasts, protons are translocated through the thylakoid membrane from the lumen to the stroma.
  • The mechanism occurs through the Q cycle as in EC 1.10.2.2 (complex III) and involves electron bifurcation.
  • Formerly EC 1.10.99.1.
