Chlorosome-depleted membranes and a reaction center complex with well-defined subunit composition were prepared from the green sulfur bacterium Chlorobium vibrioforme under anaerobic conditions. The reaction center complex contains a 15-kDa polypeptide with the N-terminal amino acid sequence MEPQLSRPETASNQVR/. This sequence is nearly identical to the N-terminus of the pscD gene product from Chlorobium limicola (Hager-Braun et al. (1995) Biochemistry 34: 9617–9624). In the presence of ferredoxin and ferredoxin:NADP+ oxidoreductase, the membranes and the isolated reaction center complex photoreduced NADP+ at rates of 333 and 110 μmol (mg bacteriochlorophyll a)−1 h−1, respectively. This shows that the isolated reaction center complex contains all the components essential for steady state electron transport. Midpoint potentials at pH 7.0 of 160 mV for cytochrome c551 and of 245 mV for P840 were determined by redox titration. Antibodies against cytochrome c551 inhibit NADP+ reduction while antibodies against the bacteriochlorophyll a-binding Fenna-Matthews-Olson protein do not.
