All the structures listed are ‘as-prepared’ enzymes that have not been treated with substrates, inhibitors or to activate or deactivate them. In S. scrofa and T. thermophila the enzyme is contained in a supercomplex. Each structural feature is compared to its structure defined in this laboratory in the ‘active’ (A) and ‘deactive’ (D) resting states of bovine complex I [8,23,35] and residue numbers are given for the bovine enzyme. Square brackets denote poor density. ND6 TMH3: A, α-helical or D, π-bulge. ND3 TMH1-2, ND1 TMH5-6 and NDUFS2 β1–β2 loops: A, matches the bovine-A loop conformation or A-like, with only minor differences; Alt, in an alternate but ordered conformation; D, disordered. ND1 TMH4: A, bent helix with Y127-Cα in the bovine-A position or A-like, bent helix with Y127-Cα towards the bovine-D position; D-like, straight helix with Y127-Cα toward the bovine-A position or D, straight helix with Y127-Ca in the bovine-D position. NDUFS7 Arg77 loop: A, Arg pointing away from NDUFS2 and an adjacent loop or A-like with the loop retracted; Mixed, state with Arg pointing away from NDUFS2 and an adjacent β-strand; D, Arg pointing towards NDUFS2 and an adjacent β-strand. Note that for A. thaliana the open and closed states correspond to the absence and presence of a domain-bridging ferredoxin supernumerary subunit, respectively, and the closed state does not have the same ordered features as the (mammalian) ‘closed’ state. Note that T. vestitus was previously known as T. elongatus. Abbreviations: n/a, not applicable; XRC, X-ray crystallography.
