Earthing effects on mitochondrial function: ATP production and ROS generation

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
In contrast to sham and naive controls, grounded mitochondria not only exhibit significantly enhanced energy production but also demonstrate a remarkable reduction in membrane potential and oxidative stress. This suggests a profound improvement in mitochondrial health, presenting a promising avenue for therapeutic interventions.

Phosphorylation disrupts long-distance electron transport in cytochrome c

Nature Communications, 2022
Electron transfer between mitochondrial cytochrome c and subunit of cytochrome bc 1 can proceed at long distance. Here the authors investigate further the mechanism and show phosphorylation regulation of the interactions between the protein partners in ...

Semisynthetic cytochrome c. [PDF]

Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 1977
Horse heart cytochrome c can be split with cyanogen bromide into a heme peptide (residues 1-65) and a nonheme peptide (residues 66-104). In a process involving (i) complex formation between the two fragments and (ii) restoration of the severed peptide linkage, a fully active cytochrome c preparation can be re-formed.

Ferritin nanovehicle for targeted delivery of cytochrome C to cancer cells [PDF]

, 2019
In this work, we have exploited the unique properties of a chimeric archaeal-human ferritin to encapsulate, deliver and release cytochrome c and induce apoptosis in a myeloid leukemia cell line.

An efficient strategy for producing RNA‐free Nucleocapsid protein of SARS‐CoV‐2 for biochemical and structural investigations

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Cleavable N‐terminal Thioredoxin fusion enabled soluble expression and purification of otherwise insoluble SARS‐CoV‐2 Nucleocapsid (N) protein. A four‐step purification strategy yielded highly homogeneous, RNA‐free N protein. Binding assays showed high RNA affinity (Kd ~ 28 nm). The study will facilitate high‐resolution structural studies of N protein,

Cytochrome C catalyzed oxygen tolerant atom-transfer radical polymerization

Bioresources and Bioprocessing, 2022
Atom-transfer radical polymerization (ATRP) is a well-known technique for controlled polymer synthesis. However, the ATRP usually employed toxic heavy metal ionas as the catalyst and was susceptible to molecular oxygen, which made it should be conducted ...

Phylogenetic and functional analysis of cyanobacterial Cytochrome c6-like proteins

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2023
All known photosynthetic cyanobacteria carry a cytochrome c6 protein that acts transferring electrons from cytochrome b6f complex to photosystem I, in photosynthesis, or cytochrome c oxidase, in respiration.

Cytochrome c: Surfing Off of the Mitochondrial Membrane on the Tops of Complexes III and IV [PDF]

, 2019
The proper arrangement of protein components within the respiratory electron transport chain is nowadays a matter of intense debate, since altering it leads to cell aging and other related pathologies.

Interaction of class III cellobiose dehydrogenase with lytic polysaccharide monooxygenase

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
The activity of lytic polysaccharide monooxygenase (LPMO) is supported by its auxiliary enzyme cellobiose dehydrogenase (CDH). The catalytic activity of both enzymes is coupled by electron transfer and a cyclic cascade generating substrates for both enzymes – hydrogen peroxide for LPMO and oxidized and non‐oxidized cellobiose and cello‐oligosaccharide ...

Redox-controlled proton gating in bovine cytochrome c oxidase. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2013
Cytochrome c oxidase is the terminal enzyme in the electron transfer chain of essentially all organisms that utilize oxygen to generate energy. It reduces oxygen to water and harnesses the energy to pump protons across the mitochondrial membrane in ...
