Colorimetric microdetermination of cytochrome c oxidase.
The Nadi reaction, discovered by Ehrlich (1885), has been used for many years as a test for indophenol oxidase. The reaction consists in the formation of indophenol blue from dimethyl-p-phenylenediamine and cr-naphthol and is given by most animal and plant cells. It is now generally held that indophenol oxidase is identical with cytochrome c oxidase, and the Nadi reaction is often employed for ...
متن کاملCytochrome c oxidase.
Within the past year, the structures of the cytochrome c oxidase from the soil bacterium Paracoccus denitrificans and of the metal centers of the cytochrome c oxidase from bovine heart mitochondria, both determined at 2.8 A resolution by X-ray crystallography, have been reported. The structures form a basis for understanding the mechanism of this redox-coupled transmembrane proton pump, which i...
متن کاملColorimetric Microdetermination of Free Fatty Acids1
A colorimetric method for determination of free fatty acids has been developed, based on the estimation of copper in a chloroform extract of their cupric salts with oxalic acid bis-(cyclohexylidenehydrazide). Contamination with inorganic copper during extraction is practically eliminated by using filter-paper pads. Specificity and interferences are discussed. Recoveries average 101.1%. Normal v...
متن کاملThe Cytochrome C-cytochrome Oxidase Complex
In the preceding paper the oxidation of substrates by “indophenol oxidase” was demonstrated to be a joint action of cytochrome and cytochrome oxidase. It was further shown that with a given amount of oxidase the velocity of hydroquinone oxidation reached a maximum as the amount of added cytochrome was increased. The latter fact immediately suggested the probability that the rapid aerobic oxidat...
متن کاملAssembly of cytochrome c oxidase: what can we learn from patients with cytochrome c oxidase deficiency?
Cytochrome c oxidase is an intricate metalloprotein that transfers electrons from cytochrome c to oxygen in the last step of the mitochondrial respiratory chain. It uses the free energy of this reaction to sustain a transmembrane electrochemical gradient of protons. Site-directed mutagenesis studies of bacterial terminal oxidases and the recent availability of refined crystal structures of the ...
