Perturbation of Cytochrome c Maturation Reveals Adaptability of the Respiratory Chain in Mycobacterium tuberculosis

open access: yesmBio, 2013
Mycobacterium tuberculosis depends on aerobic respiration for growth and utilizes an aa3-type cytochrome c oxidase for terminal electron transfer. Cytochrome c maturation in bacteria requires covalent attachment of heme to apocytochrome c, which occurs ...

Vibrational energy relaxation (VER) of a CD stretching mode in cytochrome c [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2004
We first review how to determine the rate of vibrational energy relaxation (VER) using perturbation theory. We then apply those theoretical results to the problem of VER of a CD stretching mode in the protein cytochrome c. We model cytochrome c in vacuum as a normal mode system with the lowest-order anharmonic coupling elements. We find that, for the ``

Living Microalgae‐Based Magnetic Microrobots for Calcium Overload and Photodynamic Synergetic Cancer Therapy

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
A magnetic microrobot fabricated by Spirulina platensis is proposed to accumulate in tumor regions and generate in situ high calcium concentration and sufficient oxygen. These characteristics of the microrobot present a strategy for triggering calcium overload therapy and chlorophyll‐mediated photodynamic therapy, and such combination resulted in a ...

UV-light effects on cytochrome c modulated by the aggregation state of phenothiazines. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2013
The present study shows the factors that modulate the photodamage promoted by phenothiazines. Cytochrome c was irradiated with UV light for 120 min, over a pH range from 4.0 to 8.0, in the absence and in the presence of different concentrations of ...

Imaging cytochrome C oxidase and FoF1-ATP synthase in mitochondrial cristae of living human cells by FLIM and superresolution microscopy [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2017
Cytochrome C oxidase and FoF1-ATP synthase constitute complex IV and V, respectively, of the five membrane-bound enzymes in mitochondria comprising the respiratory chain. These enzymes are located in the inner mitochondrial membrane (IMM), which exhibits large invaginations called cristae.

Dynamics of protein-protein encounter: a Langevin equation approach with reaction patches [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
We study the formation of protein-protein encounter complexes with a Langevin equation approach that considers direct, steric and thermal forces. As three model systems with distinctly different properties we consider the pairs barnase:barstar, cytochrome c:cytochrome c peroxidase and p53:MDM2.

Interaction of Cytochrome C Oxidase with Steroid Hormones

open access: yesCells, 2020
Estradiol, testosterone and other steroid hormones inhibit cytochrome c oxidase (CcO) purified from bovine heart. The inhibition is strongly dependent on concentration of dodecyl-maltoside (DM) in the assay.
