Crystal structure of the yeast cytochrome bc1 complex with its bound substrate cytochrome c.
Small diffusible redox proteins facilitate electron transfer in respiration and photosynthesis by alternately binding to integral membrane proteins. Specific and transient complexes need to be formed between the redox partners to ensure fast turnover. In respiration, the mobile electron carrier cytochrome c shuttles electrons from the cytochrome bc1 complex to cytochrome c oxidase. Despite exte...
متن کاملStructure of the yeast cytochrome bc1 complex with a hydroxyquinone anion Qo site inhibitor bound.
Bifurcated electron transfer during ubiquinol oxidation is the key reaction of cytochrome bc1 complex catalysis. Binding of the competitive inhibitor 5-n-heptyl-6-hydroxy-4,7-dioxobenzothiazole to the Qo site of the cytochrome bc1 complex from Saccharomyces cerevisiae was analyzed by x-ray crystallography. This alkylhydroxydioxobenzothiazole is bound in its ionized form as evident from the crys...
متن کاملA structural analysis of the transient interaction between the cytochrome bc1 complex and its substrate cytochrome c.
In cellular respiration, cytochrome c transfers electrons from the cytochrome bc1 complex to cytochrome c oxidase by transiently binding to the membrane proteins. The first X-ray structure of the yeast cytochrome bc1 complex with bound cytochrome c revealed the general architecture of the electron-transfer complex. The interface of the complex is small. The haem moieties are centrally located i...
متن کاملCrystallization of cytochrome bc1 complex.
Complex III (cytochrome bc1 particle; ubiquinol:ferricytochrome c oxidoreductase, EC 1.10.2.2) was purified from beef heart mitochondria by a combination of hydrophobic interaction and affinity chromatography. By washing the complex with detergent on the hydrophobic interaction column, phospholipids were effectively depleted; 7 mol of cardiolipin per mol of cytochrome c1 was retained in the fin...
متن کاملThe cytochrome bc1 complex: function in the context of structure.
The bc1 complexes are intrinsic membrane proteins that catalyze the oxidation of ubihydroquinone and the reduction of cytochrome c in mitochondrial respiratory chains and bacterial photosynthetic and respiratory chains. The bc1 complex operates through a Q-cycle mechanism that couples electron transfer to generation of the proton gradient that drives ATP synthesis. Genetic defects leading to mu...
