ATP-induced spectral changes in cytochrome c oxidase. A kinetic investigation.
Mixing ATP with soluble oxidized cytochrome c oxidase induces a spectral perturbation in the Soret region of the enzyme. This spectral perturbation is observed at ATP concentrations similar to those found to modulate the catalytic activity of cytochrome c oxidase [Malatesta, Antonini, Sarti & Brunori (1987) Biochem. J. 248, 161-165]. The process is reversible and corresponds to a simple binding...
متن کاملKinetic gating of the proton pump in cytochrome c oxidase.
Cytochrome c oxidase (CcO), the terminal enzyme of the respiratory chain, reduces oxygen to water and uses the released energy to pump protons across a membrane. Here, we use kinetic master equations to explore the energetic and kinetic control of proton pumping in CcO. We construct models consistent with thermodynamic principles, the structure of CcO, experimentally known proton affinities, an...
متن کاملStructural Changes and Proton Transfer in Cytochrome c Oxidase
In cytochrome c oxidase electron transfer from cytochrome c to O2 is linked to transmembrane proton pumping, which contributes to maintaining a proton electrochemical gradient across the membrane. The mechanism by which cytochrome c oxidase couples the exergonic electron transfer to the endergonic proton translocation is not known, but it presumably involves local structural changes that contro...
متن کاملCytochrome c-mediated electron transfer between ubiquinol-cytochrome c reductase and cytochrome c oxidase. Kinetic evidence for a mobile cytochrome c pool.
Ubiquinol oxidase has been reconstituted from ubiquinol-cytochrome c reductase (Complex III), cytochrome c and cytochrome c oxidase (Complex IV). The steady-state level of reduction of cytochrome c by ubiquinol-2 varies with the molar ratios of the complexes and with the presence of antimycin in a way that can be quantitatively accounted for by a model in which cytochrome c acts as a freely dif...
متن کاملConformational changes in cytochrome c and cytochrome oxidase upon complex formation: a resonance Raman study.
The fully oxidized complex of cytochrome c and cytochrome oxidase formed at low ionic strength was studied by resonance Raman spectroscopy. The spectra of the complex and of the individual components were compared over a wide frequency range using Soret band excitation. In both partners of the complex, structural changes occur in the heme groups and in their immediate protein environment. The s...
