Protein Family Models

This family is the catalytic domain of aromatic-ring- hydroxylating dioxygenase systems. The active site contains a non-heme ferrous ion coordinated by three ligands. (from Pfam)

The rieske domain has a [2Fe-2S] centre. Two conserved cysteines coordinate one Fe ion, while the other Fe ion is coordinated by two conserved histidines. In hyperthermophilic archaea there is a SKTPCX(2-3)C motif at the C-terminus. The cysteines in this motif form a disulphide bridge, which stabilises the protein [4]. [1]. 8736555.

aromatic ring-hydroxylating dioxygenase subunit alpha is the catalytic component of a complex that catalyzes the addition of hydroxyl groups to the aromatic ring, an initial step in the oxidative degradation of aromatic compounds; similar to Comamonas sp. terephthalate 1,2-dioxygenase, terminal oxygenase component subunit alpha
