Revised Manuscript Received March 9, 1994® abstract: PsaE is a highly conserved, water-solubleprotein of the photosystem I reaction center complexes of cyanobacteria, algae, and green plants. Along with the PsaC and PsaD proteins, the PsaE protein binds to the stromal surface of photosystem I and is requiredfor cyclic electron transport in Synechococcus sp. strain PCC 7002 [Yu, L., Zhao, J., Mühlenhoff, U., Bryant, D. A., & Golbeck, J. H.(1993) Plant Physiol. 103, 171-180]. The psaE gene from this cyanobacterium encodes a mature protein of 69 amino acid residues and has recently been overexpressed in Escherichia coli [Zhao, J., Snyder, W. B., Mühlenhoff, U., Rhiel, E., Warren, P. V., Golbeck, J. H., & Bryant, D. A.(1993) Mol. Microbiol. 9, 183-194]. By using both unlabeled and uniformly 15N-labeled protein in a series of two-and three-dimensional NMR experiments, complete and 15N amide resonance assignments were made. The major secondary structural element of PsaE is a five-stranded antiparallel/3-sheet. The five strands extend as follows:/3A, residues 7-10;/3B, residues 21-26;/3C, residues 36-39;/3D, residues 57-60; and/3E, residues 65-68. The topology is represented by (+ 1,+ 1,+ 1,-4x); it brings the first and last strands, and consequently the N-and C-termini, together. The protein has an extensive hydrophobic core organized around a conserved phenylalanine residue (Phe-40); another of its distinctive features is a segment extending from residue 42 to residue 56 devoid of dipolar contacts with the/3-sheet. The pÁj/2 of the sole histidine residue (His-63) was determined to be 5.4.The PsaE1 protein is a subunit of the photosystem I (PS I) reaction center complex that is found in all oxygen-evolving photosynthetic organisms, including cyanobacteria, eukaryotic algae, and higher plants. PS I functions as a membrane-bound, photooxidoreductase and catalyzes the light-driven transfer of an electron from reduced plastocyanin (or cytochrome eg) to oxidized ferredoxin [or flavodoxin; for reviews, see Bryant (1992), Chitnis and Nelson (1991), Golbeck (1992, 1994), and Golbeck and Bryant (1991)]. The cyanobacterial PS I complex is made up of 11 polypeptide subunits, about 100 chlorophyll a molecules, 10-15 d-carotenes, 2 vitamin Ki molecules, and 3 [4Fe-4S] centers denoted Fx, Fa, and Fb. The PsaE subunit is associated with the stromal side of the PS I complex (P700-Fx) core protein (Li etal., 1991a; Parrett etal., 1990). PsaC, PsaD, and PsaE from the cyanobacterium Synechococcus sp. PCC 7002have been overproduced in Escherichia coli andused in reconstitution studies in vitro
