A procedure for obtaining the electrophoretically and ultracentrifugally homogenous preparation of “methemoglobin reductase” from erythrocytes of blue-white dolphin was developed. Method consists of DEAE-cellulose adsorption, fractionation with ammonium sulfate, Sephadex G-75 gel filtration and DEAE-Sephadex A-50 column chromatography. There were obtained three preparations of enzyme. All these preparations strongly reduced methemoglobin, metmyoglobin and cytochrome c in the presence of methyleneblue when NADPH or NADH was used as the cofactor. The activity of NADPH as the cofactor was higher than that of NADH. The enzyme contained neither flavin nor heme, and molecular weight was 23,000 ~ 28,000. 相似文献

The interactions of cytochrome c1 and cytochrome c from bovine cardiac mitochondria were investigated. Cytochrome c1 and cytochrome c formed a 1:1 molecular complex in aqueous solutions of low ionic strength. The complex was stable to Sephadex G-75 chromatography. The formation and stability of the complex were independent of the oxidation state of the cytochrome components as far as those reactions studied were concerned. The complex was dissociated in solutions of ionic strength higher than 0.07 or pH exceeding 10 and only partially dissociated in 8 M urea. No complexation occurred when cytochrome c was acetylated on 64% of its lysine residues or photooxidized on its 2 methionine residues. Complexes with molecular ratios of less than 1:1 (i.e. more cytochrome c) were obtained when polymerized cytochrome c, or cytochrome c with all lysine residues guanidinated, or a "1-65 heme peptide" from cyanogen bromide cleavage of cytochrome c was used. These results were interpreted to imply that the complex was predominantly maintained by ionic interactions probably involving some of the lysine residues of cytochrome c but with major stabilization dependent on the native conformations of both cytochromes. The reduced complex was autooxidizable with biphasic kinetics with first order rate constants of 6 X 10(-5) and 5 X U0(-5) s-1 but did not react with carbon monoxide. The complex reacted with cyanide and was reduced by ascorbate at about 32% and 40% respectively, of the rates of reaction with cytochrome c alone. The complex was less photoreducible than cytochrome c1 alone. The complex exhibited remarkably different circular dichroic behavior from that of the summation of cytochrome c1 plus cytochrome c. We concluded that when cytochromes c1 and c interacted they underwent dramatic conformational changes resulting in weakening of their heme crevices. All results available would indicate that in the complex cytochrome c1 was bound at the entrance to the heme crevice of cytochrome c on the methionine-80 side of the heme crevice. 相似文献

1. The membrane-bound succinoxidase of Escherichia coli was fractionated with deoxycholate into three soluble components, viz. succinate dehydrogenase.cytochrome b1 complex, cytochrome oxidase complex, and a factor identified as a phospholipid-containing component. 2. The dehydrogenase and cytochrome oxidase complexes were partially purified by filtration on Amicon membranes, Sepharose 4B chromatography, and sucrose gradient centrifugation. 3. Reconstitution of membranous succinoxidase, which catalyzes the oxidation of succinate by molecular oxygen by an integrated CN(-)-sensitive pathway, was achieved by mixing the soluble succinate dehydrogenase.cytochrome b1 complex with the soluble cytochrome oxidase complex in the presence of deoxycholate and then removing the detergent by gel filtration on Sephadex G-75. The phospholipid-containing factor stimulated the formation of succinoxidase by about 100% over that observed with the two complexes. 4. Isopycnic sucrose gradient centrifugation of succinate dehydrogenase.cytochrome b1 complex, cytochrome oxidase, and the reconstituted succinoxidase gave buoyant densities (p value) as 1.167, 1.229, and 1.194, respectively. 5. Electron microscopic evidence is presented for the vesicular nature of the reconstituted succinoxidase. 相似文献

Cytochrome c-556 from Agrobacterium mefaciens B2a was isolated in a pure, homoneous state. The best purification procedure volved ammonium sulphate fractionation, delting on Sephadex G-25, column chromatographic fractionation on DEAE- and CM-cellulose, and gel filtration on Sephadex G-75 superfine. Substitution of the CM-cellulose step by isoelectric focusing was successful. The purity of the final preparation is warranted by the purity index value, the electrophoretic patterns in the absence and presence of sodium dodecylsulphate, the sedimentation profile and the N-terminal amino acid analysis (alanine). The absorption spectrum of reduced cytochrome c-556 has maxima at 318, 419, 526 and 555.5 nm. The molar extinction coefficient for the alpha-band is 20 200M-1cm-1. The isoelectric point, determined both by preparative and analytical isoelectric focusing, is 5.55 +/- 0.10. The molecular weight of cytochrome c-556 was determined by gel filtration as 12000 and by dodecylsulphate gel electrophoresis as 11 500. 相似文献

A photosynthetic c-type cytochrome, cytochrome c6, was extracted from a green alga, Bryopsis maxima, by cutting and immersing the frozen thalli in phosphate buffer, pH 7.0, and purified by acrinol treatment, ammonium sulfate fractionation, DEAE-Sephacel chromatography and Bio-Gel P-10 gel filtration. The ferrcytochrome c6 has absorption maxima at 553.5 (alpha), 523 (beta), 417 (gamma), 318 (delta), and 275 nm, and the ferricytochrome at 695, 528, and 411 (gamma). The molecular weight was estimated to be about 10,000 from Sephadex G-75 gel filtration and sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS)-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (PAGE). The midpoint redox potential for the cytochrome was determined by equilibrium titration with a ferro- and ferricyanide system to be 0.385 volt at pH 7.0. Isoelectric points for ferro- and ferricytochromes were determined by density gradient isoelectric focusing electrophoresis to be at pH 3.91 and 4.02, respectively. The complete amino acid sequence of the cytochrome was determined by Edman degradation and by carboxypeptidase digestions of the Cm-cytochrome, 6 staphylococcal protease peptides and 5 lysyl endopeptidase peptides. The cytochrome contained 88 amino acid residues, giving a molecular weight of 9,904 including 1 mol of heme c. The sequence is as follows: GGDLEIGADVFTGNCAACHAGGANSVEPLKTLNKEDVTKYLDGGLSIEAITSQVRNGKGAMPAWSDRLD DEEIDGVVAYVFKNINEGW. A phylogenetic tree of 13 algal cytochromes c6 was constructed by comparing the amino acid differences. 相似文献

The gene of high molecular weight, multiheme cytochrome c (Hmc) from the sulfate-reducing bacterium Desulfovibrio vulgaris Hildenborough has been overexpressed in Desulfovibrio desulfuricans G200. The recombinant protein has been purified. Its molecular weight (65,600), amino acid composition, and NH2-terminal sequence were found to be identical to those of the wild-type protein. The recombinant protein has been spectroscopically characterized (optical spectrum, EPR, circular dichroism) and compared to the wild-type protein. We have found 16 hemes per molecule by iron analysis and the pyridine hemochrome test. Both high- and low-spin features were observed in the EPR spectrum. A detailed spin quantitation analysis indicates 1 or 2 high-spin hemes and 14 or 15 low-spin hemes per molecule. The redox potentials of the hemes determined by voltammetric techniques gave an average of three different values, 0, -100, and -250 mV (versus NHE), for the wild-type and the recombinant cytochrome. The low potential values are similar to the values observed for the bis(histidinyl) coordinated hemes of cytochrome c3. A comparison of the arrangement of heme binding sites and coordinated histidines in the amino acid sequences of cytochrome c3 and Hmc has shown that the latter contains four domains, three of which are complete c3-like domains, while the fourth represents an incomplete c3-like domain which may contain His-Met coordinated hemes. These data are in agreement with the detailed study of the number and types of hemes reported in this paper. 相似文献

A c3 type cytochrome has been purified from the thermophilic, non-spore-forming, sulfate-reducing bacterium Thermodesulfobacterium commune. The purified protein was homogeneous as judged by sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, gel filtration, and isoelectric focusing. A pI of 6.83 was observed. The molecular weight of the cytochrome was estimated to be ca. 13,000 from both gel filtration and sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. The hemoprotein exhibited absorption maxima at 530, 408.5, and 351 nm in the oxidized form and 551.5 (alpha band), 522.5 (beta band), and 418.5 nm (gamma band) in the reduced form. The extinction coefficients of T. commune cytochrome c3 were 130,000, 74,120, and 975,000 M-1 cm-1 at 551.5, 522.5, and 418.5 nm, respectively. It contains four hemes per molecule, on the basis of both the iron estimation and the extinction coefficient value of its pyridine hemochrome. The amino acid composition showed the presence of eight cysteine residues involved in heme binding. T. commune cytochrome c3 had low threonine, serine, and glycine contents and high glutamic acid and hydrophobic residue contents. The electrochemical study of T. commune cytochrome c3 by cyclic voltammetry and differential pulse polarography has shown that the cytochrome system behaves like a reversible system. Four redox potential values at Eh1 = -0.140 +/- 0.010 V, Eh2 = Eh3 = Eh4 = -0.280 +/- 0.010 V have been determined. T. commune cytochrome c3, which acts as the physiological electron carrier of hydrogenase, is similar in most respects to the multiheme low-potential cytochrome c3 which is characteristic of the genus Desulfovibrio. 相似文献

A study is presented on the coupling of electron transfer with proton transfer at heme a and Cu(A) (redox Bohr effects) in carbon monoxide inhibited cytochrome c oxidase isolated from bovine heart mitochondria. Detailed analysis of the coupling number for H(+) release per heme a, Cu(A) oxidized (H(+)/heme a, Cu(A) ratio) was based on direct measurement of the balance between the oxidizing equivalents added as ferricyanide to the CO-inhibited fully reduced COX, the equivalents of heme a, Cu(A), and added cytochrome c oxidized and the H(+) released upon oxidation and all taken up back by the oxidase upon rereduction of the metal centers. One of two reductants was used, either succinate plus a trace of mitochondrial membranes (providing a source of succinate-c reductase) or hexaammineruthenium(II) as the chloride salt. The experimental H(+)/heme a, Cu(A) ratios varied between 0.65 and 0.90 in the pH range 6.0-8.5. The pH dependence of the H(+)/heme a, Cu(A) ratios could be best-fitted by a function involving two redox-linked acid-base groups with pK(o)-pK(r) of 5.4-6.9 and 7.3-9.0, respectively. Redox titrations in the same samples of the CO-inhibited oxidase showed that Cu(A) and heme a exhibited superimposed E'(m) values, which decreased, for both metals, by around 20 mV/pH unit increase in the range 6.0-8.5. A model in which oxido-reduction of heme a and Cu(A) are both linked to the pK shifts of the two acid-base groups, characterized by the analysis of the pH dependence of the H(+)/heme a, Cu(A) ratios, provided a satisfactory fit for the pH dependence of the E'(m) of heme a and Cu(A). The results presented are consistent with a primary involvement of the redox Bohr effects shared by heme a and Cu(A) in the proton-pumping activity of cytochrome c oxidase. 相似文献

A high molecular weight multiheme c-type cytochrome from the sulfate-reducing bacterium Desulfovibrio vulgaris (Hildenborough) has been spectroscopically characterized and compared with the tetraheme cytochrome c3. The protein contains a pentacoordinate high-spin heme (gz 6.0) and two hexacoordinate low-spin hemes (gz 2.95, gy 2.27, gx 1.48). From analysis of the g values for the low-spin hemes by the procedure of Blumberg and Peisach (Palmer, 1983) and comparison with with the optical spectra from a variety of c-type cytochromes, it is likely that these low-spin hemes are bound by two histidine residues. The NO derivative displayed typical rhombic EPR features (gx 2.07, gz 2.02, gy 1.99). Addition of azide does not lead to coupling between heme chromophores, but the ligand is accessible to the high-spin heme. The use of a glassy-carbon electrode to perform direct (no promoter) electrochemistry on the cytochrome is illustrated. Differential pulse polarography of the native protein gave two waves with reduction potentials of -59 (5) and -400 (8) mV (versus NHE). The cyanide adduct gave two waves with reduction potentials of -263 (8) and -401 (8) mV. The cytochrome was found to catalyze the reduction of nitrite and hydroxylamine. 相似文献

In view of the assignment of the four redox potentials values to the four heme groups in the crystallographic structure of Desulfovibrio desulfuricans Norway cytochrome c3, a biochemical approach is reported. A singly modified cytochrome c3 on arginine 73 has been prepared. The study of the redox properties of the modified cytochrome by electrochemistry together with the graphic modelisation of the molecule allow to assign the highest redox potential (-165 mV) to the heme 4 in the three dimensional structure. 相似文献

Clostripain-catalyzed re-formation of a peptide bond in a cytochrome C fragment complex 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4

Enzymatically-catalyzed condensation of cytochrome c fragments, ferrous heme fragment (1-38) and apofragment (39-104), has allowed the back-conversion of cytochrome c complex to native cytochrome c. The conversion was accomplished in 90% (v/v) glycerol, a solvent which has been shown to decrease the ionization of the terminal alpha-carboxyl group liberated during hydrolysis of a peptide bond. The effect on the pK is probably the main reason the thermodynamic obstacle to re-synthesis is minimized. A 30% conversion to cytochrome c was obtained. The cytochrome c product was distinguished from the non-covalent complex and separated fragments by molecular weight analysis with sodium dodecyl sulfate polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, by elution from Sephadex G-50 and sulfopropyl-Sephadex in the presence of denaturant, by amino acid analysis of the product purified under complex-dissociation conditions, and by spectral analysis of the absorption bands of the heme. This method provides an opportunity to study the covalent rather than the complex form of cytochrome c analogs. 相似文献

5 micrograms of human beta-endorphin were labelled with 2 mCi 125I by the chloramine T technique. After two gel filtrations on Sephadex G-15 and on Sephadex G-50 in phosphate buffer with EDTA, Trasylol and mercapto-ethanol, a pure tracer was obtained with a specific activity about 150 microCi/ug. Kept at + 4 degrees C, the tracer remained utilizable for 30 days without loss of immunoreactivity. The labelling with lactoperoxydase and the use of another gel filtration method (filtration on Aca 202) gave a 125I beta-END tracer with the same immunoreactivity. The binding of this tracer to the antibody of an anti-beta-END antiserum diluted at 1/8000 was 32% with a non specific binding of 2%. 5 micrograms of human beta-lipotropin were labelled with 0.5 mCi 125I by the lactoperoxydase method. After two gel filtrations on Sephadex G-25 and on Sephadex G-75 in phosphate buffer with EDTA, Trasylol and mercapto-ethanol, a pure tracer with a specific activity of 140 microCi/micrograms was obtained. It remained utilizable for 30 days when kept at + 4 degrees C. Gel filtration on Aca 202 did not give good purification, while gel filtration on Aca 54 was good but slower than on Sephadex G-75. The binding to antibody in absence of unlabelled beta-LPH was 32% for an anti-beta-LPH antiserum diluted at 1/4000. The non specific binding was 2.5%. 相似文献

Delta5-3beta-hydroxysteroid oxidoreductase was extracted in magnesium-containing Tris buffer from sonicated Streptomyces griseocarneus cells. The enzyme was partially purified (150 X) by ion exchange chromatography and gel filtration following (NH4)2SO4 fractionation. Upon gel filtration on Sephadex G-75 to G-200, the greatest part of the activity gave a peak in the fractionation range. The enzyme obtained from the gel yielded small enzyme molecules on repeated chromatography. A molecular weight of 32 to 36 000 was calculated for the activity appearing in the fractionation range of Sephadex G-75 to G-200. The enzyme is highly specific for the irreversible oxidation of the 3beta-hydroxyl group in steroids with a trans-anellated A : B ring system with either C5 or C6 double bond. Delta5-3-ketosteroids are converted into delta5-3-ketosteroids at a high rate, but the isomerase activity cannot be separated from the oxidoreductase activity either by chromatography or by selective heat inactivation. NAD, NADP, FMN or FAD did not influence the activity, but the enzyme is inactive in the absence of molecular oxygen. 相似文献

A cytochrome c (cyt. c) was solubilized with Triton-X-100 and co-purified with cytochrome c oxidase from membranes of chemotrophically grown cells of Rhodopseudomonas capsulata. Cyt. c and cytochrome oxidase were separated on Sephadex G-50 columns. Antibodies against cytochrome c2 from the same bacterium did not cross react with the membrane-bound cyt. c. The IEP of the membrane-bound cyt. c was found to be pH 8.2, the midpoint potential was 234 +/- 11 mV at pH 7.0. This cyt. c binds CO. The native cyt. c is a dimer with an apparent Mr of 25000 containing 2 mol heme per mol dimer, which is believed to function as an electron donor for the high-potential cytochrome c oxidase. 相似文献

Redox properties of cytochrome b559 (Cyt b559) and cytochrome c550 (Cyt c550) have been studied by using highly stable photosystem II (PSII) core complex preparations from a mutant strain of the thermophilic cyanobacterium Thermosynechococcus elongatus with a histidine tag on the CP43 protein of PSII. Two different redox potential forms for Cyt b559 are found in these preparations, with a midpoint redox potential ( E'(m)) of +390 mV in about half of the centers and +275 mV in the other half. The high-potential form, whose E'(m)is pH independent, can be converted into the lower potential form by Tris washing, mild heating or alkaline pH incubation. The E'(m) of the low-potential form is significantly higher than that found in other photosynthetic organisms and is not affected by pH. The possibility that the heme of Cyt b559 in T. elongatus is in a more hydrophobic environment is discussed. Cyt c550 has a higher E'(m)when bound to the PSII core (-80 mV at pH 6.0) than after its extraction from the complex (-240 mV at pH 6.0). The E'(m) of Cyt c550 bound to PSII is pH independent, while in the purified state an increase of about 58 mV/pH unit is observed when the pH decreases below pH 9.0. Thus, Cyt c550 seems to have a single protonateable group which influences the redox properties of the heme. From these electrochemical measurements and from EPR controls it is proposed that important changes in the solvent accessibility to the heme and in the acid-base properties of that protonateable group could occur upon the release of Cyt c550 from PSII. 相似文献

A "double-alpha" c-type cytochrome, cytochrome c-555, 549, was isolated from the membrane fraction of an extreme thermophile, Thermus thermophilus HB8, and highly purified by chromatographies on DEAE-cellulose and Sephadex G-75 and by isoelectric focusing. The absorption maxima were at 554.8, 548.6, 522, and 417 nm in the reduced form, and at 528, 409, and 360 nm in the oxidized form. The double alpha-peak of this cytochrome was enhanced at liquid nitrogen temperature. The cytochrome contained one heme c group per protein molecule. The isoelectric point, midpoint redox potential and molecular weight were pH 4.0, +0.206 V and about 10,000, respectively. Cytochrome c-555, 549 is highly thermostable. 相似文献

Incubation of rat homogeneous detergent-solubilized cytochrome b5 with rat liver microsomes resulted in specific binding of the hemoprotein which was rapidly reduced by NADH. The NADH cytochrome c reductase activity in these preparations increased in proportion to the amount of cytochrome bound. However, the extra-bound detergent-solubilized cytochrome b5 did inhibit NADPH-dependent N-demethylations, the NADH synergism and NADPH cytochrome P-450 reductase activity. Manganese protoporphyrin-apocytochrome complex when bound to microsomes in amounts equivalent to detergent-solubilised cytochrome b5 showed no effect on N-demethylation activity. Furthermore, the binding of cytochrome b5 preparations reconstituted from heme and apocytochrome b5 had no effect on either the NADPH-dependent N-demethylation of aminopyrene or ethylmorphine or the NADH synergism observed with rat liver microsomes. In addition, homogeneous cytochrome b5 eluted from three additional Sephadex G-100 columns showed no inhibitory effects when bound to liver microsomes. Spectral analyses of the acid-acetone extract of the hemoprotein showed an absorption peak at 278 nm suggesting that the homogeneous b5 contains contaminating amounts of tightly bound detergent which is responsible for the observed inhibition of mixed function oxidase activity and which is removed during extraction of the heme from the apocytochrome and during further gel filtration applications. 相似文献

Cytochrome c3 from Desulfovibrio gigas is electrostatically adsorbed on Ag electrodes coated with self-assembled monolayers (SAMs) of 11-mercaptoundecanoic acid. The redox equilibria and electron transfer dynamics of the adsorbed four-heme protein are studied by surface enhanced resonance Raman spectroscopy. Immobilization on the coated electrodes does not cause any structural changes in the redox sites. The potential-dependent stationary experiments distinguish the redox potential of heme IV (-0.19 V versus normal hydrogen electrode) from those of the other hemes for which an average value of -0.3 V is determined. Taking into account the interfacial potential drops, these values are in good agreement with the redox potentials of the protein in solution. The heterogenous electron transfer between the electrode and heme IV of the adsorbed cytochrome c3 is analyzed on the basis of time-resolved experiments, leading to a formal electron transfer rate constant of 15 s(-1), which is a factor of 3 smaller than that of the monoheme protein cytochrome c. 相似文献

An analytical technique for the in situ characterization of b- and c-type cytochromes has been developed. From evaluation of the results of potentiometric measurements and spectrum deconvolutions, it was concluded that an integrated best-fit analysis of potentiometric and spectral data gave the most reliable results. In the total cytochrome b content of cytoplasmic membranes from aerobically grown Escherichia coli, four major components are distinguished with alpha-band maxima at 77 K of 555.7, 556.7, 558.6 and 563.5 nm, and midpoint potentials at pH 7.0 of 46, 174, -75 and 187 mV, respectively. In addition, two very small contributions to the alpha-band spectrum at 547.0 and 560.2 nm, with midpoint potentials of 71 and 169 mV, respectively, have been distinguished. On the basis of their spectral properties they should be designated as a cytochrome c and a cytochrome b, respectively. In Complex III, isolated from beef heart mitochondria, five cytochromes are distinguished: cytochrome c1 (lambda m (25 degrees C) = 553.5 nm; E'0 = 238 mV) and four cytochromes b (lambda m (25 degrees C) = 558.6, 561.2, 562.1, 566.1 nm and E'0 = -83, 26, 85, -60 mV). 相似文献
