La oxidasa alterna (AOX) es una metaloproteína monotópica que se encuentra unida a la cara interna de membrana mitocondrial. Esta enzima cataliza transferencia electrones del ubiquinol al oxígeno con formación agua como uno los productos. Cuando vía citocrómica inhibe por presencia cianuro u otros agentes xenobióticos, AOX permite el flujo NADH y, tanto, actividad catabólica y anabólica ciclo K...
Crystallographic structures of the bc1 complex from different sources have provided evidence that a movement of the Rieske iron-sulfur protein (ISP) extrinsic domain is essential for catalysis. This dynamic feature has opened up the question of what limits electron transfer, and several authors have suggested that movement of the ISP head, or gating of such movement, is rate-limiting. Measureme...
The cytochrome bc1 complex resides in the inner membrane of mitochondria and transfers electrons from ubiquinol to cytochrome c. This electron transfer is coupled to the translocation of protons across the membrane by the protonmotive Q cycle mechanism. This mechanism topographically separates reduction of quinone and reoxidation of quinol at sites on opposite sites of the membrane, referred to...
Coenzyme Q10 (CoQ10) plays an important role in bioenergetic processes and has antioxidant activity. Fifteen exercise-trained individuals (10 men and 5 women; 30-65 years) received reduced CoQ10 (Kaneka QH ubiquinol; 300 mg per day) or a placebo for four weeks in a random order, double blind, cross-over design (3 week washout). After each four-week period, a graded exercise treadmill test and a...
Patients with CHF, NYHA class IV, often fail to achieve adequate plasma CoQ10 levels on supplemental ubiquinone at dosages up to 900 mg/day. These patients often have plasma total CoQ10 levels of less than 2.5 microg/ml and have limited clinical improvement. It is postulated that the intestinal edema in these critically ill patients may impair CoQ10 absorption. We identified seven patients with...
We have investigated the respiratory activities and the concentrations of respiratory chain components of mitochondria isolated from the livers and hearts of two groups of rats aged 6 and 24 months respectively. In comparison with the adult controls (6 months), in aged rats there was a decline in total aerobic NADH oxidation in both tissues; only minor (non-significant) changes, however, were f...
We have studied the c.d. spectra of the 'Rieske' iron-sulphur protein isolated from the ubiquinol: cytochrome c reductase (bc1 complex) of bovine heart mitochondria. Both the oxidized and the reduced form of the 'Rieske' protein display a series of well-resolved c.d. features resembling those reported for the 'Rieske'-type iron-sulphur protein purified from the bacterium Thermus thermophilus [F...
We have investigated the mechanism responsible for half-of-the-sites activity in the dimeric cytochrome bc(1) complex from Paracoccus denitrificans by characterizing the kinetics of inhibitor binding to the ubiquinol oxidation site at center P. Both myxothiazol and stigmatellin induced a 2-3 nm shift of the visible absorbance spectrum of the b(L) heme. The shift generated by myxothiazol was sym...
We have examined the pre-steady state reduction kinetics of the Saccharomyces cerevisiae cytochrome bc(1) complex by menaquinol in the presence and absence of endogenous ubiquinone to elucidate the mechanism of triphasic cytochrome b reduction. With cytochrome bc(1) complex from wild type yeast, cytochrome b reduction was triphasic, consisting of a rapid partial reduction phase, an apparent par...
