Peroxidase Activity of a c‐Type Cytochrome b 5 in the Non‐Native State is Comparable to that of Native Peroxidases
The design of artificial metalloenzymes has achieved tremendous progress, although few designs can achieve catalytic performances comparable to that of native enzymes. Moreover, the structure and function of artificial metalloenzymes in non-native states has rarely been explored. Herein, we found that a c-type cytochrome b5 (Cyt b5), N57C/S71C Cyt b5, with heme covalently attached to the protei...
متن کاملPreparation and biochemical characterisation of nanoconjugates of functionalized carbon nanotubes and cytochrome c
Objective(s): The present work deals with the preparation of nanobioconjugates based on the immobilization of cytochrome c (cyt c) on functionalized multi-wall carbon nanotubes (f-MWCNTs). The effect of the nanosupport and the immobilization procedure on the biochemical and structural characteristics of the immobilized protein was investigated. Methods: </strong...
متن کاملA review of structural properties, metabolic function and measurement of peroxidase activity
The production of reactive oxygen species occurs during the natural metabolism of oxidative-breathing cells. Among reactive oxygen species, hydrogen peroxide is more dangerous to cell life due to its long half-life, but it is meanwhile an important regulatory molecule in redox signaling in living things. Peroxidases are one of the key antioxidant enzymes that are widely distributed in nature an...
متن کاملLocalization and Characterization of Peroxidases in the Mitochondria of Chilling-Acclimated Maize Seedlings.
We present evidence of two peroxidases in maize (Zea mays L.) mitochondria. One of these uses guaiacol and the other uses cytochrome c as the electron donor. Treatments of fresh mitochondria with protease(s) indicate that ascorbate and glutathione peroxidases are likely bound to the mitochondria as cytosolic contaminants, whereas guaiacol and cytochrome peroxidases are localized within the mito...
متن کاملStructural Characteristics of Stable Folding Intermediates of Yeast Iso-1-Cytochrome-c
Cytochrome-c (cyt-c) is an electron transport protein, and it is present throughout the evolution. More than 280 sequences have been reported in the protein sequence database (www.uniprot.org). Though sequentially diverse, cyt-c has essentially retained its tertiary structure or fold. Thus a vast data set of varied sequences with retention of similar structure and fun...
