the effect of triton x-100, na cholate and tween 80 on the solubilization of integral membrane proteins in intact cells, spheroplasts and inner-membrane fragments of salmonella typhimurium was studied. the detergents were used in various concentrations (1.6 to 64 mm) and cytochromes b and d were used as marker to monitor the solubilization of membrane-bound proteins. results showed that no inne...

Antisera were prepared against cytochromes c3 from Desulfovibrio africanus, D. vulgaris, and D. salexigens. Cross-reactions were observed between antisera to D. vulgaris and D. africanus cytochromes and heterologous cytochromes c3. A weak cross-reaction with antisera against both D. vulgaris and D. africanus cytochromes and the acid form of the D. salexigens cytochrome was seen; the basic form ...

Abstract Geobacter bacteria produce conductive pili appendages and an outer membrane‐anchored lipopolysaccharide to immobilize uranium extracellularly. Yet, some radionuclide enters the cell envelope, where is rapidly mineralized by periplasmic c ‐cytochromes. To investigate this reaction, we constructed envelope biomimetic interfaces containing PpcA, most conserved abundant ‐cytochrome in spec...

A novel fluorescence technique for monitoring the redox status of c-type cytochromes in Geobacter sulfurreducens was developed in order to evaluate the capacity of these extracytoplasmic cytochromes to store electrons during periods in which an external electron acceptor is not available. When intact cells in which the cytochromes were in a reduced state were excited at a wavelength of 350 nm, ...

The chemolithoautotrophic Gram-negative bacterium Acidithiobacillus ferrooxidans is versatile and can grow on a number of electron donors and acceptors. In the A. ferrooxidans ATCC 23270 genome, computer analysis identified 11 genes encoding putative cytochromes c. At least eight putative cytochromes c were differentiated on gels in ATCC 33020 cells grown on ferrous iron or sulfur. All these cy...

Herbs, food and dietary supplements (HFDS), can interact significantly with anticancer drug treatments via cytochrome p450 isoforms (CYP) CYP3A4, CYP2D6, CYP1A2, CYP2C8. The objective of this review was to assess the influence HFDS compounds on these cytochromes. Interactions CYP activities were searched for 189 herbs products, 72 in Web Knowledge® databases. Analyses made from 140 3125 clinica...
