Crystallization of cytochrome bc1 complex.
Complex III (cytochrome bc1 particle; ubiquinol:ferricytochrome c oxidoreductase, EC 1.10.2.2) was purified from beef heart mitochondria by a combination of hydrophobic interaction and affinity chromatography. By washing the complex with detergent on the hydrophobic interaction column, phospholipids were effectively depleted; 7 mol of cardiolipin per mol of cytochrome c1 was retained in the fin...
متن کاملParameters determining the relative efficacy of hydroxy-naphthoquinone inhibitors of the cytochrome bc1 complex.
Hydroxy-naphthoquinones are competitive inhibitors of the cytochrome bc(1) complex that bind to the ubiquinol oxidation site between cytochrome b and the iron-sulfur protein and presumably mimic a transition state in the ubiquinol oxidation reaction catalyzed by the enzyme. The parameters that affect efficacy of binding of these inhibitors to the bc(1) complex are not well understood. Atovaquon...
متن کاملInhibitors of 2,3-oxidosqualene lanosterol-cyclase as potential antifungal agents.
Fig. 1. StcJrol hiosynthesis squalene to lanosterol. This enzyme has been shown to hc essential f o r fungi; Sacchurornyces cerevisiue mutants lacking this key enzyme in fact require exogenous ergosterol supplementation for growth 121. Even if these early steps in sterol biosynthesis are common to mammals and fungi, the example of the allylamines. which act on squalene epoxidase 131. shows that...
متن کاملProtonmotive pathways and mechanisms in the cytochrome bc1 complex.
The cytochrome bc(1) complex catalyzes electron transfer from ubiquinol to cytochrome c by a protonmotive Q cycle mechanism in which electron transfer is linked to proton translocation across the inner mitochondrial membrane. In the Q cycle mechanism proton translocation is the net result of topographically segregated reduction of quinone and reoxidation of quinol on opposite sides of the membr...
متن کاملSAR and identification of 2-(quinolin-4-yloxy)acetamides as Mycobacterium tuberculosis cytochrome bc1 inhibitors.
A previous phenotypic screen by GSK identified 2-(quinolin-4-yloxy)acetamides as potent growth inhibitors of Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb). We report the results of a preliminary structure-activity relationship (SAR) study of the compound class which has yielded more potent inhibitors. An Mtb cytochrome bd oxidase deletion mutant (cydKO) was found to be hypersensitive to most members of the ...
