Studies on Cytochrome Oxidase. Vi. Kinetics of the Aerobic Oxidation of Ferrocytochrome C by Cytochrome Oxidase.
The rate of reaction can be determined by measuring the rate of either oxygen consumption or ferrocytochrome c oxidation. When the rate of oxygen consumption is measured either manometrically or polarographically, a mixture of a limited amount of cytochrome c and an excess of reducing agent, instead of excess ferrocytochrome c, is used as an electron donor system. In this case the true electron...
متن کاملOxidation of ferrocytochrome c by mitochondrial cytochrome c oxidase.
Attempts to rationalize the kinetics of cytochrome c oxidation catalyzed by solubilized mitochondrial cytochrome c oxidase (ferrocytochrome c:oxygen oxidoreductase, EC 1.9.3.1) have been based on assumptions of productive complex formation (Michaelis-Menten approach). However, the range of substrate concentrations used has not, in general, been sufficient to establish a general rate equation. D...
متن کاملThe Cytochrome C-cytochrome Oxidase Complex
In the preceding paper the oxidation of substrates by “indophenol oxidase” was demonstrated to be a joint action of cytochrome and cytochrome oxidase. It was further shown that with a given amount of oxidase the velocity of hydroquinone oxidation reached a maximum as the amount of added cytochrome was increased. The latter fact immediately suggested the probability that the rapid aerobic oxidat...
متن کاملThe 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.
Within the past year, the structures of the cytochrome c oxidase from the soil bacterium Paracoccus denitrificans and of the metal centers of the cytochrome c oxidase from bovine heart mitochondria, both determined at 2.8 A resolution by X-ray crystallography, have been reported. The structures form a basis for understanding the mechanism of this redox-coupled transmembrane proton pump, which i...
