KshAB is a complex of KshA and KshB that catalyses the 3-Ketosteroid 9alpha-hydroxylase reaction. This entry represents the C-terminal domain catalytic domain of KshA [1,2]. This domain The catalytic domain shares the TBP-like fold found in other Rieske oxygenases.
The rieske domain has a [2Fe-2S] centre. Two conserved cysteines coordinate one Fe ion, while the other Fe ion is coordinated by two conserved histidines. In hyperthermophilic archaea there is a SKTPCX(2-3)C motif at the C-terminus. The cysteines in ...
The rieske domain has a [2Fe-2S] centre. Two conserved cysteines coordinate one Fe ion, while the other Fe ion is coordinated by two conserved histidines. In hyperthermophilic archaea there is a SKTPCX(2-3)C motif at the C-terminus. The cysteines in this motif form a disulphide bridge, which stabilises the protein [4].
