Cytochrome aa3 from Nitrosomonas europaea.
Cytochrome c oxidase has been purified from the ammonia oxidizing chemoautotroph Nitrosomonas europaea by ion-exchange chromatography in the presence of Triton X-100. The enzyme has absorption maxima at 420 and 592 nm in the resting state and at 444 and 598 nm in the dithionite-reduced form; optical extinction coefficient (598 nm minus 640 nm) = 21.9 cm-1 nM-1. The enzyme has approximately 11 n...
متن کاملMethane oxidation by Nitrosomonas europaea.
Methane inhibited NH4+ utilization by Nitrosomonas europaea with a Ki of 2mM. O2 consumption was not inhibited. In the absence of NH4+, or with hydrazine as reductant, methane caused nearly a doubling in the rate of O2 uptake. The stimulation was abolished by allylthiourea, a sensitive inhibitor of the oxidation of NH4+. Analysis revealed that methanol was being formed in these experiments, wit...
متن کاملTetraheme cytochrome c-554 from Nitrosomonas europaea. Heme-heme interactions and ligand binding.
Cytochrome c-554 functions in the ammonia oxidizing system of Nitrosomonas europaea. We have investigated its molecular and ligand binding properties and studied the protein with optical, EPR, and Mössbauer spectroscopies in the pH range from 2 to 13. Amino acid, heme, and metal analyses show that the protein has Mr = 25,000 and that it contains four c-type hemes per molecule. Optical spectra r...
متن کاملSpectroscopic characterization and assignment of reduction potentials in the tetraheme cytochrome C554 from Nitrosomonas europaea.
The tetraheme cytochrome c(554) (cyt c(554)) from Nitrosomonas europaea is an essential electron transfer component in the biological oxidation of ammonia. The protein contains one 5-coordinate heme and three bis-His coordinated hemes in a 3D arrangement common to a newly characterized class of multiheme proteins. The ligand binding, electrochemical properties, and heme-heme interactions are in...
متن کاملPhosphorylation by extracts of Nitrosomonas europaea.
Burge, W. D. (University of California, Berkeley), E. Malavolta, and C. C. Delwiche. Phosphorylation by extracts of Nitrosomonas europaea. J. Bacteriol. 85:106-110. 1963.-Cellfree preparations of Nitrosomonas europaea are capable of oxidizing hydroxylamine, but not ammonium ion, to nitrite. The quantity of nitrite formed by our preparations was, at most, equivalent to only 70% of the hydroxylam...
