The kinetics of reduction of wild type and several site-specific mutants of yeast iso-1 cytochrome c (Arg-13----Ile, Gln-16----Ser, Gln-16----Lys, Lys-27----Gln, Lys-72----Asp), both free and in 1:1 complexes with yeast cytochrome c peroxidase, by free flavin semiquinones have been studied. Intramolecular one-electron transfer from the ferrous cytochromes c to the H2O2-oxidized peroxidase at both low (8 mM) and high (275 mM) ionic strengths was also studied. The accessibility of the cytochrome c heme within the electrostatically stabilized complex and the rate constants for intramolecular electron transfer at both low and high ionic strength are highly dependent on the specific amino acids present at the protein-protein interface. Importantly, replacement by uncharged amino acids of Arg or Lys residues thought to be important in orientation and/or stabilization of the electron-transfer complex resulted in increased rates of electron transfer. In all cases, an increase in ionic strengths from 8 to 275 mM also produced increased intramolecular electron-transfer rate constants. The results suggest that the electrostatically stabilized 1:1 complex is not optimized for electron transfer and that by neutralization of key positively charged residues, or by an increase in the ionic strength thereby masking the ionic interactions, the two proteins can orient themselves to allow the formation of a more efficient electron-transfer complex. 相似文献

The complete amino acid sequence of 293 residues in the single polypeptide chain of yeast cytochrome c peroxidase has been determined. Sequence analyses were performed on fragments obtained by cleavage with cyanogen bromide and by tryptic digestion of citraconylated protein. These fragments were aligned with sequential and compositional data as well as those obtained with intact protein, tryptic, and chymotryptic peptides (Takio and Yonetani, 1980, Arch. Biochem. Biophys.203, 605–614). Residues critical for catalysis by the enzyme were identified as arginine 48, tryptophan 51, histidine 52, and histidine 174 by fitting the sequence to the electron density map derived by others. Sequence comparison with other proteins show limited homology with horseradish peroxidase and myoglobin. 相似文献

A hypothetical model of the cytochrome c peroxidase . cytochrome c electron transfer complex 总被引:11,自引:0,他引:11
A hypothetical three-dimensional model of the cytochrome c peroxidase . tuna cytochrome c complex is presented. The model is based on known x-ray structures and supported by chemical modification and kinetic data. Cytochrome c peroxidase contains a ring of aspartate residues with a spatial distribution on the molecular surface that is complementary to the distribution of highly conserved lysines surrounding the exposed edge of the cytochrome c heme crevice, namely lysines 13, 27, 72, 86, and 87. These lysines are known to play a functional role in the reaction with cytochrome c peroxidase, cytochrome oxidase, cytochrome c1, and cytochrome b5. A hypothetical model of the complex was constructed with the aid of a computer-graphics display system by visually optimizing hydrogen bonding interactions between complementary charged groups. The two hemes in the resulting model are parallel with an edge separation of 16.5 A. In addition, a system of inter- and intramolecular pi-pi and hydrogen bonding interactions forms a bridge between the hemes and suggests a mechanism of electron transfer. 相似文献

The effect of complex formation between ferricytochrome c and cytochrome c peroxidase (Ferrocytochrome-c:hydrogen peroxide oxidoreductase, EC 1.11.1.5) on the reduction of cytochrome c by N,N,N',N'-tetramethyl-p-phenylenediamine (TMPD), reduced N-methylphenazonium methosulfate (PMSH), and ascorbate has been determined at low ionic strength (pH 7) and 25 degrees C. Complex formation with the peroxidase enhances the rate of ferricytochrome c reduction by the neutral reductants TMPD and PMSH. Under all experimental conditions investigated, complex formation with cytochrome c peroxidase inhibits the ascorbate reduction of ferricytochrome c. This inhibition is due to the unfavorable electrostatic interactions between the ascorbate dianion and the negatively charged cytochrome c-cytochrome c peroxidase complex. Corrections for the electrostatic term by extrapolating the data to infinite ionic strength suggest that ascorbate can reduce cytochrome c peroxidase-bound cytochrome c faster than free cytochrome c. Reduction of cytochrome c peroxidase Compound II by dicyanobis(1,10-phenanthroline)iron(II) (Fe(phen)2(CN)2) is essentially unaffected by complex formation between the enzyme and ferricytochrome c at low ionic strength (pH 6) and 25 degrees C. However, reduction of Compound II by the negatively changed tetracyano-(1,10-phenanthroline)iron(II) (Fe(phen)(CN)4) is enhanced in the presence of ferricytochrome c. This enhancement is due to the more favorable electrostatic interactions between the reductant and cytochrome c-cytochrome c peroxidase Compound II complex then for Compound II itself. These studies indicate that complex formation between cytochrome c and cytochrome c peroxidase does not sterically block the electron-transfer pathways from these small nonphysiological reductants to the hemes in these two proteins. 相似文献

Cytochrome c (horse heart) was covalently linked to yeast cytochrome c peroxidase by using the cleavable bifunctional reagent dithiobis-succinimidyl propionate in 5 mM-sodium phosphate buffer, pH 7.0. A cross-linked complex of molecular weight 48 000 was purified in approx. 10% yield from the reaction mixture, which contained 1 mol of cytochrome c and 1 mol of cytochrome c peroxidase/mol. Of the total 40 lysine residues, four to six were blocked by the cross-linking agent. Dithiobis-succinimidylpropionate can also cross-link cytochrome c to ovalbumin, but cytochrome c peroxidase is the preferred partner for cytochrome c in a mixture of the three proteins. The cytochrome c cross-linked to the peroxidase can be rapidly reduced by free cytochrome c-557 from Crithidia oncopelti, and the equilibrium obtained can be used to calculate a mid-point oxidation-reduction potential for the cross-linked cytochrome of 243 mV. Mitochondrial NADH-cytochrome c reductase will reduce the bound cytochrome only very slowly, but the rate of reduction by ascorbate at high ionic strength approaches that for free cytochrome c. Bound cytochrome c reduced by ascorbate can be re-oxidized within 10s by the associated peroxidase in the presence of equimolar H2O2. In the standard peroxidase assay the cross-linked complex shows 40% of the activity of the free peroxidase. Thus the intrinsic ability of each partner in the complex to take part in electron transfer is retained, but the stable association of the two proteins affects access of reductants. 相似文献

Cytochrome c peroxidase and cytochrome c form a noncovalent electron transfer complex in the course of the peroxidase-catalyzed reduction of H2O2. The two hemoproteins were cross-linked in 40% yield to a covalent 1:1 complex with the aid of 1-ethyl-3-(3-dimethylaminopropyl)carbodiimide. The covalent complex was found to be a valid model of the noncovalent electron transfer complex for the following reasons. The covalent complex had only 5% residual peroxidase activity toward exogeneous ferrocytochrome c indicating that the cross-linked cytochrome c covers the electron-accepting site of cytochrome c peroxidase. The residual peroxidase activity was almost independent of ionic strength indicating that the electron-accepting site is much less accessible even when ionic bonds between the two cross-linked hemoproteins are severed. The rate of reduction of heme c by ascorbate is 15 times slower in the covalent complex than in free cytochrome c and is independent of ionic strength. Although the covalent complex may not have been entirely pure with respect to the number and location of the cross-links, two major cross-links could be localized to within a few residues. One is from Lys 13 of cytochrome c to an acidic residue in positions 32, 33, 34, 35, or 37 of cytochrome c peroxidase, the other from Lys 86 of cytochrome c to a carboxyl group in the same cluster of acidic residues. The result stresses the importance of a peculiar stretch of acidic residues of cytochrome c peroxidase and of Lys 13 and 86 of cytochrome c. 相似文献

The amino acid sequences of chymotryptic and tryptic peptides of Hippopotamus amphibius cytochrome c were determined by a recent modification of the manual Edman sequential degradation procedure. They were ordered by comparison with the structure of the hog protein. The hippopotamus protein differs in three positions: serine, alanine, and glutamine replace alanine, glutamic acid, and lysine in positions 43, 92, and 100, respectively. Since the artiodactyl suborders diverged in the mid-Eocene some 50 million years ago, the fact that representatives of some of them show no differences in their cytochromes c (cow, sheep, and hog), while another exhibits as many as three such differences, verifies that even in relatively closely related lines of descent the rate at which cytochrome c changes in the course of evolution is not constant. Furthermore, 10.6% of the hippopotamus cytochrome c preparation was shown to contain isoleucine instead of valine at position 3, indicating that one of the four animals from which the protein was obtained was heterozygous in the cytochrome c gene. Such heterogeneity is a necessary condition of evolutionary variation and has not been previously observed in the cytochrome c of a wild mammalian population. 相似文献

Complex formation between ferricytochrome c peroxidase (CCP) and ferricytochrome c from yeast [cyt(Y)] and horse heart [cyt(H)] was studied by resonance Raman spectroscopy. On the basis of a detailed spectral analysis of the free proteins, it was possible to attribute changes in the spectra of the complexes to the individual proteins. At pH 7.0 both cyt(Y) and cyt(H) binding induces an increase in the six-coordinate low-spin configuration of CCP from 9% to 19% at the expense of the five-coordinate high-spin state, which drops from 84% to 74%. In the free and complexed state, CCP exhibits a constant fraction of the six-coordinate high-spin form (approximately 7%). In addition to affecting the coordination state, there is also a cyt-specific structural response of CCP to complexation. In the cyt(Y)-CCP complex, the peripheral vinyl and propionate substituents of CCP are more rigidly fixed in the protein matrix, whereas binding of cyt(H) only slightly perturbs the conformations of these side chains. The biological significance of the conformational changes in CCP are discussed. In contrast to CCP, there are no detectable structural changes in either cyt(Y) or cyt(H) upon complex formation. 相似文献

1. The kinetics of ferrocytochrome c peroxidation by yeast peroxidase are described. Kinetic differences between the older and more recent preparations of the enzyme most probably arise from differences in intrinsic turnover rates. 2. The time-courses of cytochrome c peroxidation by the enzyme follow essentially first-order kinetics in phosphate buffer. Deviations from first-order kinetics occur in acetate buffer, and are due to a higher enzymic turnover rate in this medium accompanied by a greater tendency to autocatalytic peroxidation of cytochrome c. 3. The kinetics of ferrocytochrome c peroxidation by yeast peroxidase are interpreted in terms of a mechanism postulating formation of reversible complexes between the peroxidase and both reduced and oxidized cytochrome c. Formation of these complexes is inhibited at high ionic strengths and by polycations. 4. Oxidized cytochrome c can act as a competitive inhibitor of ferrocytochrome c peroxidation by peroxidase. The K(i) for ferricytochrome c is approximately equal to the K(m) for ferrocytochrome c and thus probably accounts for the observed apparent first-order kinetics even at saturating concentrations of ferrocytochrome c. 5. The results are discussed in terms of a possible analogy between the oxidations of cytochrome c catalysed by yeast peroxidase and by mammalian cytochrome oxidase. 相似文献

A covalent complex between recombinant yeast iso-1-cytochrome c and recombinant yeast cytochrome c peroxidase (rCcP), in which the crystallographically defined cytochrome c binding site [Pelletier, H., and Kraut, J. (1992) Science 258, 1748-1755] is blocked, was synthesized via disulfide bond formation using specifically engineered cysteine residues in both yeast iso-1-cytochrome c and yeast cytochrome c peroxidase [Papa, H. S., and Poulos, T. L. (1995) Biochemistry 34, 6573-6580]. Previous studies on similar covalent complexes, those that block the Pelletier-Kraut crystallographic site, have demonstrated that samples of the covalent complexes have detectable activities that are significantly lower than those of wild-type yCcP, usually in the range of approximately 1-7% of that of the wild-type enzyme. Using gradient elution procedures in the purification of the engineered peroxidase, cytochrome c, and covalent complex, along with activity measurements during the purification steps, we demonstrate that the residual activity associated with the purified covalent complex is due to unreacted CcP that copurifies with the covalent complex. Within experimental error, the covalent complex that blocks the Pelletier-Kraut site has zero catalytic activity in the steady-state oxidation of exogenous yeast iso-1-ferrocytochrome c by hydrogen peroxide, demonstrating that only ferrocytochrome c bound at the Pelletier-Kraut site is oxidized during catalytic turnover. 相似文献

A pH titration study of cytochrome c peroxidase and apocytochrome c peroxidase was carried out at 25 degrees C and 0.1 M ionic strength. The net charge on cytochrome c peroxidase due to proton association and dissociation varies from +32 at pH 2 to --50.2 at pH 12, while that of apocytochrome c peroxidase varies between +24.5 at pH 3 to --48 at pH 12. The apoprotein tented to aggregate below pH 3. Between pH 4 and 8, the titration behavior of both the native enzyme and the apoenzyme are consistent with the semi-empirical Linderstr?m-Lang theory. Between pH 9 and 12, the titration behavior of both the holo- and apoproteins suggest they assume a more extended conformation which reduces the electrostatic interaction charged groups on the surface. In the acid region, between pH 4 and 3, a similar transition occurs in which the protein expands 40% based on the electrostatic factor of the Linderstr?m-Lang theory. 相似文献

Recombinant cytochrome c peroxidase (CcP) and a W51A mutant of CcP, in contrast to other classical peroxidases, react with phenylhydrazine to give sigma-bonded phenyl-iron complexes. The conclusion that the heme iron is accessible to substrates is supported by the observation that CcP and W51A CcP oxidize thioanisole to the racemic sulfoxide with quantitative incorporation of oxygen from H2O2. Definitive evidence for an open active site is provided by stereoselective epoxidation by both enzymes of styrene, cis-beta-methylstyrene, and trans-beta-methylstyrene. trans-beta-methylstyrene yields exclusively the trans-epoxide, but styrene yields the epoxide and phenylacetaldehyde, and cis-beta-methylstyrene yields both the cis- and trans-epoxides and 1-phenyl-2-propanone. The sulfoxide, stereoretentive epoxides, and 1-phenyl-2-propanone are formed by ferryl oxygen transfer mechanisms because their oxygen atom derives from H2O2. In contrast, the oxygen in the trans-epoxide from the cis-olefin derives primarily from molecular oxygen and is probably introduced by a protein cooxidation mechanism. cis-[1,2-2H]-1-Phenyl-1-propene is oxidized to [1,1-2H]-1-phenyl-2-propanone without a detectable isotope effect on the epoxide:ketone product ratio. The phenyl-iron complex is not formed and substrate oxidation is not observed when the prosthetic group is replaced by delta-meso-ethylheme. CcP thus has a sufficiently open active site to form a phenyl-iron complex, to oxidize thioanisole to the sulfoxide, and to epoxidize styrene and beta-methylstyrene. The results indicate that a ferryl (Fe(IV) = O)/protein radical pair can be coupled to achieve two-electron oxidations. The unique ability of CcP to catalyze monooxygenation reactions does not conflict with its peroxidase function because cytochrome c is oxidized at a distinct surface site (DePillis, G. D., Sishta, B. P., Mauk, A. G., and Ortiz de Montellano, P. R. (1991) J. Biol. Chem. 266, 19334-19341). 相似文献

Cytochrome c peroxidase (CcP) can bind as many as two cytochrome c (Cc) molecules in an electrostatic complex. The location of the two binding domains on CcP has been probed by photoinduced interprotein electron transfer (ET) between zinc-substituted horse cytochrome c (ZnCc) and CcP with surface charge-reversal mutations and by isothermal titration calorimetry (ITC). These results, which are the first experimental evidence for the location of domain 2, indicate that the weak-binding domain includes residues 146-150 on CcP. CcP(E290K) has a charge-reversal mutation in the tight-binding domain, which should weaken binding, and it weakens the 1:1 complex; K(1) decreases 20-fold at 18 mM ionic strength. We have employed two mutations to probe the proposed location for the weak-binding domain on the CcP surface: (i) D148K, a "detrimental" mutation with a net (+2) change in the charge of CcP, and (ii) K149E, a "beneficial" mutation with a net (-2) change in the charge. The interactions between FeCc and CcP(WT and K149E) also have been studied with ITC. The CcP(D148K) mutation causes no substantial change in the 2:1 binding but an increase in the reactivity of the 2:1 complex. The latter can be interpreted as a long-range influence on the heme environment or, more likely, the enhancement of a minority subset of binding conformations with favorable pathways for ET. CcP(K149E) has a charge-reversal mutation in the weak-binding domain that produces a substantial increase in the 2:1 binding constant as measured by both quenching and ITC. For the 1:1 complex of CcP(WT), DeltaG(1) = -8.2 kcal/mol (K(1) = 1.3 x 10(6) M(-)(1)), DeltaH(1) = +2.7 kcal/mol, and DeltaS(1) = +37 cal/K.mol at 293 K; for the second binding stage, K(2) < 5 x 10(3) M(-)(1), but accurate thermodynamic parameters were not obtained. For the 1:1 complex of CcP(K149E), DeltaG(1) = -8.5 kcal/mol (K(1) = 2 x 10(6) M(-)(1)), DeltaH(1) = +2. 0 kcal/mol, and DeltaS(1) = +36 cal/K.mol; for the second stage, DeltaG(2) = -5.5 kcal/mol (K(1) = 1.3 x 10(4) M(-)(1)), DeltaH(2) = +2.9 kcal/mol, and DeltaS(2) = +29 cal/K.mol. 相似文献

The kinetic properties of a 1:1 covalent complex between horse-heart cytochrome c and yeast cytochrome c peroxidase (ferrocytochrome-c:hydrogen-peroxide oxidoreductase, EC 1.11.1.5) have been investigated by transient-state and steady-state kinetic techniques. Evidence for heterogeneity in the complex is presented. About 50% of the complex reacts with hydrogen peroxide with a rate 20–40% faster than that of native enzyme; 20% of the complex exists in a conformation which does not react with hydrogen peroxide but converts to the reactive form at a rate of 20 ± 5 s−1; 30% of the complex does not react with hydrogen peroxide to form the oxidized enzyme intermediate, cytochrome c peroxidase Compound I. Intramolecular electron transfer between covalently bound ferrocytochrome c and an oxidized site in cytochrome c peroxidase Compound I is too fast to measure, but a lower limit of 600 s−1 can be estimated at 5°C in a 10 mM potassium phosphate buffer at pH 7.5. Free ferrocytochrome c reduces cytochrome c peroxidase Compound I covalently bound to ferricytochrome c at a rate 10−4 to 10−5-times slower than for free Compound I. The transient-state ferrocytochrome c reduction rates of Compound I covalently linked to ferricytochrome c are about 70-times too slow to account for the steady-state catalytic properties of the 1:! covalent complex. This indicates that hydrogen peroxide can interact with the 1:1 complex at sites other than the heme of cytochrome c peroxidase, generating additional species capable of oxidizing free ferrocytochrome c. 相似文献
