A novel type of monoheme cytochrome c: biochemical and structural characterization at 1.23 A resolution of rhodothermus marinus cytochrome c.
Monoheme cytochromes of the C-type are involved in a large number of electron transfer processes, which play an essential role in multiple pathways, such as respiratory chains, either aerobic or anaerobic, and the photosynthetic electron transport chains. This study reports the biochemical characterization and the crystallographic structure, at 1.23 A resolution, of a monoheme cytochrome c from...
متن کاملStark Effect
An electric field partly lifts the degeneracies of atomic energy levels. This splitting was observed by Stark [1] and explained by Schrödinger [2]. We compute the Stark effect on atomic hydrogen using perturbation theory by diagonalizing the perturbation term in the N-fold degenerate multiplet of states with principal quantum number N . We exploit the symmetries of this problem to simplify the ...
متن کاملMajor structural proteins of type B, type C, and type D oncoviruses share interspecies antigenic determinants.
Interspecies antigenic determinants have been used as markers to study the evolution of oncoviruses. By radioimmunologic techniques, it has been possible to detect crossreactivities among the major structural proteins of prototype viruses representing each of the three major Oncovirinae genera. Two different subsets of interspecies antigenic determinants were demonstrated. One encompasses known...
متن کاملDomain-Swapped Dimer of Pseudomonas aeruginosa Cytochrome c551: Structural Insights into Domain Swapping of Cytochrome c Family Proteins
Cytochrome c (cyt c) family proteins, such as horse cyt c, Pseudomonas aeruginosa cytochrome c551 (PA cyt c551), and Hydrogenobacter thermophilus cytochrome c552 (HT cyt c552), have been used as model proteins to study the relationship between the protein structure and folding process. We have shown in the past that horse cyt c forms oligomers by domain swapping its C-terminal helix, perturbing...
متن کاملStructural Characteristics of Stable Folding Intermediates of Yeast Iso-1-Cytochrome-c
Cytochrome-c (cyt-c) is an electron transport protein, and it is present throughout the evolution. More than 280 sequences have been reported in the protein sequence database (www.uniprot.org). Though sequentially diverse, cyt-c has essentially retained its tertiary structure or fold. Thus a vast data set of varied sequences with retention of similar structure and fun...
