The cytochrome c binding site on cytochrome c oxidase.
Cytochrome c oxidase (EC 1.9.3.1) is the terminal enzyme of the mitochondria respiratory chain catalysing electron transfer from cytochrome c to molecular oxygen [ 1,2]. The molecular mechanism of this process is still not understood. At present, little is known about such important structural features as the position of the prosthetic groups or the location and characteristics of the cytochrom...
متن کاملCytochrome c Oxidase from Bakers’ Yeast
Purified cytochrome c oxidase from bakers’ yeast can be resolved into six polypeptide bands by polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis in the presence of sodium dodecyl sulfate. The apparent molecular weights of these components are I, 42,000; II, 34,500; III, 23,000; IV, 14,000; V, 12,500; and VI, 9,500. (Although Component V actually consists of two distinct polypeptide species, it will be regarde...
متن کاملCytochrome c Oxidase from Bakers’ Yeast
Cytochrome aa3 was purified 35to 40-fold from submitochondrial particles of commercial bakers’ yeast. The purification procedure involved solubilization of the enzyme with cholate, fractionation with ammonium sulfate, and chromatography on DEAE-cellulose in the presence of Triton x-100. The purified, active enzyme contained approximately 10 nmoles of heme a per mg of protein and was free of oth...
متن کاملChapter 10 Purification of the cytochrome C reductase/cytochrome C oxidase super complex of yeast mitochondria.
The protein complexes of the respiratory chain interact by forming large protein particles called respiratory supercomplexes or "respirasomes". Biochemical characterization of these particles proved to be difficult because of their instability. Here we describe a strategy to isolate and characterize the cytochrome c reductase/cytochrome c oxidase supercomplex of yeast, also termed the III + IV ...
متن کاملEffects of fatty acids on expression of genes encoding subunits of cytochrome c oxidase and cytochrome c oxidase activity in HT29 human colonic adenocarcinoma cells.
As the primary and preferred energy source of normal colonic epithelial cells, fatty acids may play a unique role in the differentiation and physiology of these cells. We have shown that expression levels of COXIII, a mitochondrial gene encoding one of the 13 subunits of cytochrome c oxidase, are abnormally low in colon tumors and colonic tissue at genetic risk for developing tumors but increas...
