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 ...
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].

This entry represents LpqE, putative lipoprotein Lxx21020, and uncharacterised protein RP573, mainly found in bacteria. Putative lipoprotein LpqE is a membrane-associated bacterial protein predicted to be involved in cell envelope processes. As a putative lipoprotein, LpqE is likely anchored to the membrane via a lipid-modified N-terminal cysteine residue, a hallmark of bacterial lipoproteins. While its precise biological function remains uncharacterised, LpqE is commonly found in pathogenic bacteria and may contribute to host-pathogen interactions or membrane stability [1].
The Pfam entry does not include all Prosite members. The cytochrome 556 and cytochrome c' families are not included. All these are now in a new clan together. The C-terminus of DUF989, Pfam:PF06181, has now been merged into this family.
