Evolution of Cytochrome c Oxidase IV Regulation in Mammals
Aerobic respiration, although metabolically advantageous in O2-rich environments, can be detrimental to the cell when O2 is not fully reduced resulting in cytotoxic reactive oxygen species (ROS) production. Cytochrome c oxidase subunit 4 (COX-4) is primarily responsible for fully reducing O2 during metabolism and exists as COX4-1 and COX4-2 isoforms. The former exists in normoxia, but is replac...
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 کاملEvolution of eutherian cytochrome c oxidase subunit II: heterogeneous rates of protein evolution and altered interaction with cytochrome c.
Cytochrome c oxidase subunit II (COII), encoded by the mitochondrial genome, exhibits one of the most heterogeneous rates of amino acid replacement among placental mammals. Moreover, it has been demonstrated that cytochrome c oxidase has undergone a structural change in higher primates which has altered its physical interaction with cytochrome c. We collected a large data set of COII sequences ...
متن کاملSphaeromyxa artedielli sp. n. (Myxozoa: Sphaeromyxidae), a parasite of sculpins (Cottidae) in northern Norway.
Sphaeromyxa artedielli sp. n. is described from the gall bladder of the Atlantic hookear sculpin Artediellus atlanticus Jordan et Evermann (Cottidae; type host) from northern Norway. The parasite was also found to infect Triglops murrayi Günther (Cottidae). Spores are produced in disporic pansporoblasts in large flat plasmodia. Spores are straight and fusiform with truncated ends, and measure 1...
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...
