Clostridium acetobutylicum, an obligatory anaerobe, is able to grow microoxically with the accumulation of two functionally unknown O-2-induced proteins identified by two-dimensional electrophoresis. One was determined to be a novel type rubrerythrin-like protein, named rubperoxin (Rpr) in this study, that conserves one rubredoxin-type Fe(SCys)(4) Site per polypeptide in the N-terminus. Recombinant rubperoxin expressed in E. coli purified in its oxidized form is a dimer with optical absorption maxima at 492, 377, and 277 nm. Reduced rubperoxin is rapidly and fully oxidized by a half molar ratio of H2O2 per mole protein, and slowly oxidized by t-butyl hydroperoxide and O-2. Cell-free extracts from microoxically grown cells efficiently reduce rubperoxin when NAD(P)H is used as the electron donor (preferentially reduced by NADH). These results strongly suggest that rubperoxin is involved in NAD(P)H-dependent H2O2 detoxification in vivo. (c) 2007 Federation of European Biochemical Societies. Published by Elsevier B.V.
