The primary sequence of flavodoxin from Fusobacterium nucleatum, a pathogenic oral bacterium, is marked with a number of distinct features including a glycine to lysine (K13) substitution in the highly conserved phosphate binding loop (T/S-X-T-G-X-T), variation in the aromatic residues that sandwich the FMN cofactor, and a more even distribution of acidic and basic residues. The Eox/sq (oxidized/semiquinone; -43 mV) and Esq/hq (semiquinone/hydroquinone; -256 mV) are the highest recorded reduction potentials of known long-chain flavodoxins. These more electropositive values are a consequence of the apoprotein binding to the FMN hydroquinone anion with ~70-fold greater affinity compared to the oxidized form of the cofactor. Inspection of the FnFld crystal structure revealed the absence of a hydrogen bond between the protein and the oxidized FMN N5 atom, which likely accounts for the more electropositive Eox/sq . The more electropositive Esq/hq is likely attributed to only one negatively charged group positioned within 12 a of the FMN N1. We show that natural substitutions of highly conserved residues partially account for these more electropositive reduction potentials. This article is protected by copyright. All rights reserved.
