The evolutionary stability of cytochrome c-551 in Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Pseudomonas fluorescens biotype C.
Cytochrome c-551 was prepared from nine different strains of Pseudomonas aeruginosa and six of Pseudomonas fluorescens biotype C, and their amino acid sequences were compared with the sequences previously determined for the cytochromes of type strains of each species. The standard of sequence examination was such that all single amino acid substitutions, delections or insertions ought to have b...
متن کاملElectron transfer from Phanerochaete chrysosporium cellobiose oxidase to equine cytochrome c and Pseudomonas aeruginosa cytochrome c-551.
The electron-transfer reactions of cellobiose oxidase (CBO) have been investigated by conventional and by rapid-scan stopped-flow spectroscopy at pH 6.0. Analysis of the absorbance/time/wavelength matrix by Singular Value Decomposition (SVD) confirms earlier studies showing that cellobiose rapidly reduces the flavin group (7.7 s-1; cellobiose, 100 microM) which in turn slowly (0.2 s-1) reduces ...
متن کاملHomology of Pseudomonas cytochrome c-551 with eukaryotic c-cytochromes.
The homology of Pseudomonas cytochrome c-551 with eukaryotic cytochromes c is examined with a computer-based procedure devised to determine whether similarities exist between these proteins. One method is given by which the more recently evolved cytochromes c might have arisen from the Pseudomonas protein. This procedure involves only common genetic phenomena and accounts for most of the struct...
متن کاملCytochrome c550 from Pseudomonas aeruginosa.
In cells of Pseudomonas aeruginosa A.T.C.C. 17933 grown on ethanol the synthesis of a soluble c-type cytochrome, together with quinoprotein ethanol dehydrogenase, is induced. The cytochrome, with an alpha-absorption band at 550 nm, was purified to homogeneity. The molecular mass of the monomeric protein is 15 kDa, the pI is 4.8, and it contains one haem prosthetic group. The midpoint potential ...
متن کاملThe reaction of Pseudomonas aeruginosa cytochrome c-551 oxidase with oxygen.
The reaction of ascorbate-reduced Pseudomonas cytochrome oxidase with oxygen was studied by using stopped-flow techniques at pH 7.0 and 25 degrees C. The observed time courses were complex, the reaction consisting of three phases. Of these, only the fastest process, with a second-order rate constant of 3.3 X 10(4) M-1.S-1, was dependent on oxygen concentration. The two slower processes were fir...
