Multiheme proteins are important in energy conversion and biogeochemical cycles of nitrogen and sulfur. A diheme cytochromec4(c4) was used as a model to elucidate roles of the interdomain interface on properties of iron centers in its hemes A and B. Isolated monoheme domainsc4-A andc4-B, together with the full-length dihemec4and its Met-to-His ligand variants, were characterized by a variety of spectroscopic and stability measurements. In both isolated domains, the heme iron is Met/His-ligated at pH 5.0, as in the full-lengthc4, but becomes His/His-ligated inc4-B at higher pH. Intradomain contacts inc4-A are minimally affected by the separation ofc4-A andc4-B domains, and isolatedc4-A is folded. In contrast, the isolatedc4-B is partially unfolded, and the interface withc4-A guides folding of this domain. Thec4-A andc4-B domains have the propensity to interact even without the polypeptide linker. Thermodynamic cycles have revealed properties of monomeric folded isolated domains, suggesting that ferrous (FeII), but not ferric (FeIII)c4-A andc4-B, is stabilized by the interface. This study illustrates the effects of the interface on tuning structural and redox properties of multiheme proteins and enriches our understanding of redox-dependent complexation.
