Stigmatellin is a potent inhibitor of the quinol oxidation (Qo) site of the cytochrome bc1 complex in mitochondria[1] and the cytochrome b6f complex of thylakoid membranes. At higher concentrations, stigmatellin also inhibits Complex I, as a "Class B" inhibitor of that enzyme.[2]
Stigmatellin is isolated from the myxobacterium Stigmatella aurantica, and contains a 5,7-dimethoxy-8-hydroxychromone aromatic headgroup with a hydrophobic alkenyl chain in position 2. Crystal structures for stigmatellin-inhibited bc1 complex from bovine, avian, yeast (Saccharomyces cerevisiae) and bacterial (Rhodobacter capsulatus, Cereibacter sphaeroides, and Paracoccus denitrificans) sources are available. Stigmatellin binds at the cytochrome b Qo site in the '(heme) bl distal' position, and associates with the Rieske iron-sulfur protein via a hydrogen bond to histidine residue 181 (His-181), a ligand to the [2Fe2S] iron-sulfur cluster of this subunit. This association raises the midpoint potential of the iron-sulfur cluster from 290 to 540 mV and restricts movement of the cytoplasmic domain of the Rieske protein.
