| Abstract | The primary energy conversion (Q$_{O}$) site of the cytochrome bc $_{1}$ complex is flanked by bothhigh- and low-potential redox cofactors, the [2Fe–2S] cluster and cytochrome b $_{L}$, respectively.From the sensitivity of the reduced [2Fe–2S] cluster electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR)spectral g $_{x}$-band and line shape to the degree and type of Q$_{O}$ site occupants, we have proposeda double-occupancy model for the Q$_{O}$ site by ubiquinone in Rhodobacter capsulatus membranevesicles containing the cytochrome bc $_{1}$ complex. Biophysical and biochemical experimentshave confirmed the double occupancy model and from a combination of these results and theavailable cytochrome bc $_{1}$ crystal structures we suggest that the two ubiquinone molecules inthe Q$_{O}$ site serve distinct catalytic roles. We propose that the strongly bound ubiquinone,termed Q$_{OS}$, is close to the [2Fe–2S] cluster, where it remains tightly associated with the Q$_{O}$site during turnover, serving as a catalytic cofactor; and the weaker bound ubiquinone, Q$_{OW}$,is distal to the [2Fe–2S] cluster and can exchange with the membrane Q$_{pool}$ on a time scalemuch faster than the turnover, acting as the substrate. The crystallographic data demonstratesthat the FeS subunit can adopt different positions. Our own observations show that theequilibrium position of the reduced FeS subunit is proximal to the Q$_{O}$ site. On the basis of this, wealso report preliminary results modeling the electron transfer reactions that can occur in thecytochrome bc $_{1}$ complex and show that because of the strong distance dependence of electrontransfer, significant movement of the FeS subunit must occur in order for the complex to beable to turn over at the experimental observed rates. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
