Proceedings: Precursors of cytochrome oxidase in cytochrome-oxidase deficient cells of Neurospora crassa.
Three different cell types of Neurospora crussa deficient in cytochrome oxidase were studied : the nuclear mutant cni-1, the cytoplasmic mutant mi-1 and copper-depleted wild-type cells. 1. The enzyme-deficient cells have retained a functioning mitochondrial protein synthesis. It accounted for 1216 % of the total protein synthesis of the cell. However, the analysis of mitochondrial translation p...
متن کاملA nuclear mutant of Neurospora crassa lacking subunit 1 of cytochrome c oxidase.
A new, nuclear, cytochrome-deficient mutant of Neurospora crassa has been isolated. The mutant is characterized by its slow growth rate, high dependence on the alternate oxidase pathway of respiration, absence of spectrally detectable cytochrome aa3, and low levels of cytochrome c oxidase activity. The amount of cytochrome b appears to be normal in the mutant whereas the amount of cytochrome c ...
متن کاملA mutant of Neurospora crassa deficient in cytochrome c heme lyase activity cannot import cytochrome c into mitochondria.
The nuclear cyt-2-1 mutant of Neurospora crassa is characterized by a gross deficiency of cytochrome c (Bertrand, H., and Collins, R. A. (1978) Mol. Gen. Genet. 166, 1-13). The mutant produces mRNA that can be translated into apocytochrome c in vitro. Apocytochrome c is also synthesized in vivo in cyt-2-1, but it is rapidly degraded and thus does not accumulate in the cytosol. Mitochondria from...
متن کاملBiogenesis of cytochrome c in Neurospora crassa.
1. Precipitating antibodies specific for apocytochrome c and holocytochrome c, respectively, were employed to study synthesis and intracellular transport of cytochrome c in Neurospora in vitro. 2. Apocytochrome c as well as holocytochrome c were found to be synthesized in a cell-free homogenate. A precursor product relationship between the two components is suggested by kinetic experiments. 3. ...
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...
