It is suggested that PufX is the structural key for the dimer complex formation rather than a channel-forming protein for the exchange of ubiquinone/ubiquinol between the reaction center and the cytochrome bc1 complex.

High-resolution AFM of the photosynthetic core complex in native Rhodopseudomonas viridis membranes shows that the L and M subunits exhibit an asymmetric topography intimately associated to the LH1 subunits located at the short ellipsis axis.

Structure of the Dimeric PufX-containing Core Complex of Rhodobacter blasticus by in Situ Atomic Force Microscopy*

- BiologyJournal of Biological Chemistry
- 14 January 2005
A model of the core complex is proposed, which provides explanation for the PufX-induced dimerization of the Rhodobacter core complex, and the QB site is located facing a ∼25-Å wide gap within LH1, explaining the PUFX-favored quinone passage in and out of thecore complex.
