ABTS oxidation reaction as a model of cytochrome c-driven electron transfer [PDF]
The Ukrainian Biochemical JournalCytochrome c, as an electron carrier within the mitochondria, plays a crucial role in the electron transport chain. To meet the demand for rapid methods that assess the electron transport properties of cytochrome c, we used the electron donor 2,2′-azino ...

Rcf1 Modulates Cytochrome c Oxidase Activity Especially Under Energy-Demanding Conditions
Frontiers in Physiology, 2020 The mitochondrial respiratory chain is assembled into supercomplexes. Previously, two respiratory supercomplex-associated proteins, Rcf1 and Rcf2, were identified in Saccharomyces cerevisiae, which were initially suggested to mediate supercomplex ...

Cholate Disrupts Regulatory Functions of Cytochrome c Oxidase
Cells, 2021 Cytochrome c oxidase (CytOx), the oxygen-accepting and rate-limiting enzyme of mitochondrial respiration, binds with 10 molecules of ADP, 7 of which are exchanged by ATP at high ATP/ADP-ratios.

Revealing the structure of land plant photosystem II: the journey from negative‐stain EM to cryo‐EM
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Advances in cryo‐EM have revealed the detailed structure of Photosystem II, a key protein complex driving photosynthesis. This review traces the journey from early low‐resolution images to high‐resolution models, highlighting how these discoveries deepen our understanding of light harvesting and energy conversion in plants.

NapB Restores cytochrome c biosynthesis in bacterial dsbD-deficient mutants
Communications Biology, 2022 The DsbD protein is normally required for cytochrome c maturation (Ccm) in bacteria. With cytochrome c-rich Shewanella oneidensis as the research model, NapB, the small subunit of the nitrate reductase which is a cytochrome c per se, was found to ...

Structural biology of ferritin nanocages
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Ferritin is a conserved iron‐storage protein that sequesters iron as a ferric mineral core within a nanocage, protecting cells from oxidative damage and maintaining iron homeostasis. This review discusses ferritin biology, structure, and function, and highlights recent cryo‐EM studies revealing mechanisms of ferritinophagy, cellular iron uptake, and ...
