Time-resolved fluorescence and circular dichroism of porphyrin cytochrome c and Zn-porphyrin cytochrome c incorporated in reversed micelles.
Interactions between fluorescent horse heart cytochrome c derivatives (e. g. porphyrin cytochrome c and Zn-porphyrin cytochrome c) with surfactant interfaces in reversed micellar solutions have been studied, using different spectroscopic techniques. Anionic [sodium bis(2-ethylhexyl)sulfosuccinate, AOT] and cationic (cetyltrime-thylammonium bromide, CTAB) surfactant solutions have been used in o...
متن کاملProtecting the triplet excited state in sterically congested platinum porphyrin.
Platinum tetrakis(2,4,6-triethylphenyl)porphyrin (Pt-1) was synthesized and its structural (X-ray), electrochemical and photophysical properties were fully characterized. Comparative studies of Pt-1 and its unsubstituted analog PtTPP show the effect of sterically congesting ortho-substituents on the dynamics of the triplet excited states. Lowered quenching rates by 3-4 times were observed for P...
متن کاملCytochrome c folding pathway: kinetic native-state hydrogen exchange.
Native-state hydrogen exchange experiments under EX1 conditions can distinguish partially unfolded intermediates by their formation rates and identify the amide hydrogens exposed and protected in each. Results obtained define a cytochrome c intermediate seen only poorly before and place it early on the major unfolding pathway. Four distinct unfolding steps are found to be kinetically ordered in...
متن کاملZinc porphyrin: a fluorescent acceptor in studies of Zn-cytochrome c unfolding by fluorescence resonance energy transfer.
FRET between the zinc porphyrin (ZnP) chromophore in zinc-substituted cytochrome c (Zn-cyt c) and an Alexa Fluor dye attached to specific surface sites was used to characterize Zn-cyt c unfolding. The use of ZnP as a fluorescent acceptor eliminates the need to doubly label the protein with exogenous dyes to perform FRET experiments in which both donor and acceptor fluorescence is monitored. The...
متن کاملSteady state kinetics and binding of eukaryotic cytochromes c with yeast cytochrome c peroxidase.
1. The steady state kinetics for the oxidation of ferrocytochrome c by yeast cytochrome c peroxidase are biphasic under most conditions. The same biphasic kinetics were observed for yeast iso-1, yeast iso-2, horse, tuna, and cicada cytochromes c. On changing ionic strength, buffer anions, and pH, the apparent Km values for the initial phase (Km1) varied relatively little while the corresponding...
