Conformational Transition of Cytochrome c
Conformational transitions of oxidized and reduced cytochrome c at various solvent conditions are summarized. Sorbitol stabilizes and NaCl destabilizes native cytochrome c structure against the acid denaturation. In the process of heating, NaCl more strongly stabilizes molten globular cytochtome c state than sorbitol in secondary structure region, but in heme region, sorbitol is stronger stabil...
متن کاملStereoselective in vitro formation of c-type cytochrome variants from Hydrogenobacter thermophilus containing only a single thioether bond.
In vitro formation of Hydrogenobacter thermophilus cytochrome c552 has previously been demonstrated (Daltrop, O., Allen, J. W. A., Willis, A. C., and Ferguson, S. J. (2002) Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. U. S. A. 99, 7872-7876). Now we report that the single cysteine variants of H. thermophilus c552, which bind heme via a single thioether bond, also form in vitro. Furthermore, reaction of the apocytoch...
متن کاملConformational properties of cardiolipin-bound cytochrome c.
Interactions of cytochrome c (cyt c) with cardiolipin (CL) are important for both electron transfer and apoptotic functions of this protein. A sluggish peroxidase in its native state, when bound to CL, cyt c catalyzes CL peroxidation, which contributes to the protein apoptotic release. The heterogeneous CL-bound cyt c ensemble is difficult to characterize with traditional structural methods and...
متن کاملATP induces a conformational change in lipid-bound cytochrome c.
Resonance energy transfer studies using a pyrene-labeled phospholipid derivative 1-palmitoyl-2-[10-(pyren-1-yl)decanoyl]-sn-glycero-3-phosphoglycerol (donor) and the heme (acceptor) of cytochrome c (cyt c) have indicated that ATP causes changes in the conformation of the lipid-bound protein (Rytömaa, M., Mustonen, P., and Kinnunen, P. K. J. (1992) J. Biol. Chem. 267, 22243-22248). Accordingly, ...
متن کاملConformational changes in cytochrome c and cytochrome oxidase upon complex formation: a resonance Raman study.
The fully oxidized complex of cytochrome c and cytochrome oxidase formed at low ionic strength was studied by resonance Raman spectroscopy. The spectra of the complex and of the individual components were compared over a wide frequency range using Soret band excitation. In both partners of the complex, structural changes occur in the heme groups and in their immediate protein environment. The s...
