A conserved heme redox and trafficking pathway for cofactor attachment
Thank you for submitting your manuscript for consideration by the EMBO Journal. I apologise for the delay in getting back to you with a decision but we have still not received the final report from the third referee despite several reminders and telephone calls. Since the other two reviewers seem to be in fair agreement, I would like to provide you with a preliminary decision on your manuscript...
متن کاملTuning heme redox potentials in the cytochrome C subunit of photosynthetic reaction centers.
The photosynthetic reaction center (RC) from Rhodopseudomonas viridis contains four cytochrome c hemes. They establish the initial part of the electron transfer (ET) chain through the RC. Despite their chemical identity, their midpoint potentials cover an interval of 440 mV. The individual heme midpoint potentials determine the ET kinetics and are therefore tuned by specific interactions with t...
متن کاملProtein Machineries Involved in the Attachment of Heme to Cytochrome c: Protein Structures and Molecular Mechanisms
Cytochromes c (Cyt c) are ubiquitous heme-containing proteins, mainly involved in electron transfer processes, whose structure and functions have been and still are intensely studied. Surprisingly, our understanding of the molecular mechanism whereby the heme group is covalently attached to the apoprotein (apoCyt) in the cell is still largely unknown. This posttranslational process, known as Cy...
متن کاملHeme A of Cytochrome c Oxidase
Heme A, isolated from bovine heart muscle by procedures which include extractions into pyridine/ chloroform and two-phase, liquid-liquid chromatography on Celite, has been converted to several derivatives. Examination of the proton nuclear magnetic resonance (PMR) spectra and other properties of these derivatives reveals heme A to be the iron complex of %formyl-6,7-bis(2”-hydroxycarbonylethyl)-...
متن کاملA cytochrome b562 variant with a c-type cytochrome CXXCH heme-binding motif as a probe of the Escherichia coli cytochrome c maturation system.
Cytochrome b562 is a periplasmic Escherichia coli protein; previous work has shown that heme can be attached covalently in vivo as a consequence of introduction of one or two cysteines into the heme-binding pocket. A heterogeneous mixture of products was obtained, and it was not established whether the covalent bond formation was catalyzed or spontaneous. Here, we show that coexpression from pl...
