Rieske Iron–Sulfur Cluster Proteins From an Anaerobic Ammonium Oxidizer Suggest Unusual Energetics in Their Parent Rieske/Cytochrome b Complexes

open access: yesProteins: Structure, Function, and Bioinformatics, Volume 94, Issue 4, Page 905-920, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Anaerobic ammonium‐oxidizing (anammox) bacteria employ a unique, hydrazine‐based pathway to obtain energy from nitrite and ammonium. These organisms possess distinct Rieske/cytochrome b complexes whose precise role in anammox metabolism remains unclear, but which have been proposed to include the generation of NAD(P)H.
