Structure/function of oxygen-regulated isoforms in cytochrome c oxidase.
Eukaryotic cytochrome c oxidases are complex oligomeric membrane proteins composed of subunit polypeptides encoded by both nuclear and mitochondrial genomes. While the mitochondrially encoded subunits are encoded by unique genes, some of the nuclear-encoded subunits are encoded by multigene families. The isoforms produced by these multigene families are tissue-specific and/or developmentally re...
متن کاملThe membrane modulates internal proton transfer in cytochrome c oxidase.
The functionality of membrane proteins is often modulated by the surrounding membrane. Here, we investigated the effect of membrane reconstitution of purified cytochrome c oxidase (CytcO) on the kinetics and thermodynamics of internal electron and proton-transfer reactions during O(2) reduction. Reconstitution of the detergent-solubilized enzyme in small unilamellar soybean phosphatidylcholine ...
متن کاملRedox transitions between oxygen intermediates in cytochrome-c oxidase.
Some intermediates in the reduction of O2 to water by cytochrome-c oxidase have been characterized by optical, Raman, and magnetic circular dichroism spectroscopy. The so-called "peroxy" (P) and "ferryl" (F) forms of the enzyme, which have been considered to be intermediates of the oxygen reaction, can be generated when the oxidized enzyme reacts with H2O2, or when the two-electron reduced ("CO...
متن کاملOxygen and proton pathways in cytochrome c oxidase.
Cytochrome c oxidase is a redox-driven proton pump, which couples the reduction of oxygen to water to the translocation of protons across the membrane. The recently solved x-ray structures of cytochrome c oxidase permit molecular dynamics simulations of the underlying transport processes. To eventually establish the proton pump mechanism, we investigate the transport of the substrates, oxygen a...
