Between pH approximately 4 and 10 cobaltocytochrome c (Cocyt-c) gives an electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) spectrum with g parallel = 2.035, g the perpendicular = 2.223, CoA PARALLEL = 61.4 G, CoA the perpendicular = 49.8 G, NA parallel = 15.3 G, and NA THE PERPENDICULAR = 12.5 G. Comparisons with the EPR spectra of deoxycobaltomyoglobin, deoxycobaltohemoglobin, and model compounds and together with other evidence showed cobaltocytochrome c to have Met-80 and His-18 as its axial ligands. The protons of these ligands are seen as resonances shifted by the ring-current field of the porphyrin in the 300-MHZ 1H nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectra of cobalticytochrome c (Cocyt-c+). The methyl and gamma-methylene protons of Met-80 in this molecule occupy positions with respect to heme c which are somewhat different from those in ferrocytochrome c. The 1H NMR spectra also showed that the methyl groups of Leu-32, Ile-75, Thr-63, thioether bridges, and the porphyrin ring in the cobalt protein are in the same state as in native enzyme; the same is also true for Tyr-59, His-26, and His-33 and also possibly Tyr-67, Tyr-74, and Phe-82. Above pH 11, Cocyt-c is converted to a five-coordinated form having g parallel = 2.026, g the perpendicular = 2.325, CoA parallel = 80 G, CoA the perpendicular approximately 10 G, NA parallel = 17.5 G, and NA the perpendicular not resolved. Below pH 1.0 the EPR spectrum of Cocyt-c is also five-coordinated with g parallel = 2.014, g the perpendicular = 2.359, CoA parallel = 93.8 G, and CoA the perpendicular = 38.8 G. The axial ligands in the alkaline and the acidic forms of Cocyt-c are His-18 and Met-80, respectively. New prominent proton resonance peaks are observed in cobalt-cytochrome c which are either absent or weak in native cytochrome c. These are situated at 3.0, 1.7, and 1.44 ppm, attributable, respectively, to the epsilon-CH2, DELTA-CH2 + beta-CH2, and gamma-CH2 of lysyl residues in random-coil-peptides. From the areas of these peaks, it is estimated that one-two lysyl residues in Cocyt-c have been modified; four-five lysyl residues in Cocyt-c+ have been modified. These alterations of surface charged groups are probably responsible for the lowered reactivity of Cocyt-c with cytochrome oxidase and the lack of reactivity of Cocyt-c+ with several cytochrome reductase systems. 相似文献

A method was developed to obtain heavy meromyosin (HMM) from the tryptic digest of skipjack tuna dorsal myosin. The tuna HMM thus obtained was shown to be homogeneous on gel filtration-gel electrophoresis, and on ultracentrifugation. The sedimentation constant (S20,w) was estimated to be 6.1S for tuna HMM. The ATPase activity of tuna dorsal HMM was found to be very similar to that of rabbit skeletal HMM in many respects: KCl concentration dependence, pH dependence, effect of pCMB, kinetic parameters (Vmax and Ka) in actin activation, and Arrhenius activation energy. The only difference found between tuna HMM and rabbit HMM was in heat denaturation behavior: the ATPase activities of tuna HMM were approximately four times as sensitive to heat inactivation as those of rabbit HMM. Thus, tuna HMM should represent a good experimental material for investigations of the molecular basis of susceptibility to denaturation, and of the characteristics of fish myosins in general. A new type of heat denaturation of myosin was observed. It occurred in a very early stage of heat treatment of either tuna dorsal myosin or rabbit skeletal myosin; however, it did not occur upon heat treatment of HMM of either tuna or rabbit, and it was detectable in terms of the Mg-ATPase activity only when the activity was measured in the presence of untreated actin. 相似文献

An improved synthesis for cobalt-cytochrome has been developed; its half reduction potential is ?140 ± 20mV. Reduced Cocyt-3 is oxidized by bovine heart cytochrome oxidase at a rate ~45% that of the native cytochrome . It is not reduced by mitochondrial NADH or succinate cytochrome reductase nor by microsomal NADH or NADPH cytochrome reductase. 相似文献

The substrates of dihydropteridine reductase (EC 1.6.99.7), quinonoid 7,8-dihydro(6 H)pterins, are unstable and decompose in various ways. In attempting to prepare a more stable substrate, 6,6,8-trimethyl-5,6,7,8-tetrahydro(3 H)pterin was synthesised and the quinonoid 6,6,8-trimethyl-7,8-dihydro(6 H)pterin derived from it is extremely stable with a half-life in 0.1 M Tris/HCl (pH 7.6, 25 degrees C) of 33 h. Quinonoid 6,6,8-trimethyl-7,8-dihydro(6 H)pterin is not a substrate for dihydropteridine reductase but it is reduced non-enzymically by NADH at a significant rate and it is a weak inhibitor of the enzyme: I50 200 microM, pH 7.6, 25 degrees C when using quinonoid 6-methyl-7,8-dihydro(6 H)pterin as substrate. 6,6,8-Trimethyl-5,6,7,8-tetrahydropterin is a cofactor for phenylalanine hydroxylase (EC 1.14.16.1) with an apparent Km of 0.33 mM, but no cofactor activity could be detected with tyrosine hydroxylase (EC 1.14.16.2). Its phenylalanine hydroxylase activity, together with the enhanced stability of quinonoid 6,6,8-trimethyl-7,8-dihydro(6 H)pterin, suggest that it may have potential for the treatment of variant forms of phenylketonuria. 相似文献
