Flavocytochrome b(2) is a tetrameric enzyme (Jacq and Lederer, 1972 and 1974<ref>1972PMID: 4336855</ref>,<ref>1972PMID: 4152980</ref>). Each of the four identical subunits is composed by one single polypeptide chain.

Each subunit contains a binding site for the selectively non-covalently binding of the cofactor FMN(3-) (Flavinmononucleotide), as well as one in with the iron complexed in the tetrapyrrole ring interacts with heme b(2-) cofactor (Risler and Groudinsky, 1973<ref>PMID: 5545004 </ref>).

The amino acid sequence in the heme binding region was first determined by Guidard ''et al'', 1974<ref>1972PMID: 4575975</ref>.

For every subunit of the wild type protein form, the crystallized preparation analysis determined a molecular weight of the chain of 36 kD (Appleby and Morton, 1959<ref>PMID: 13638255</ref>) and the chain of 21 kD (Jacq and Lederer, 1974<ref>PMID: 4152980</ref>).

The sulfite adduct recombinant enzyme produced when expressed in ''E. coli'' was also crystallized (Tegoni and Cambillau, 1994<ref>PMID: 8003966</ref>) so key active site residues could be identified and comparisons with the mutant protein.
