Multiple Mechanisms Regulate Eukaryotic Cytochrome C Oxidase
Cytochrome c oxidase (COX), the rate-limiting enzyme of mitochondrial respiration, is regulated by various mechanisms. Its regulation by ATP (adenosine triphosphate) appears of particular importance, since it evolved early during evolution and is still ...

Actinorhodin Biosynthesis Terminates with an Unprecedented Biaryl Coupling Reaction
The last dimerization step of actinorhodin (ACT) biosynthesis was established through biochemical studies. ActVA‐ORF4 is a unique NAD(P)H‐dependent enzyme that catalyzes the biaryl‐coupling reaction using 8‐hydroxydihydrokalafungin (DHK‐OH) as the sole substrate. ActVA‐ORF3 is a quinone‐forming enzyme that forms DHK‐OH and ACT.

Clinical heterogeneity in a family with flail arm syndrome and review of hnRNPA1‐related spectrum
Abstract Objective Flail arm syndrome (FAS) is one of the atypical subtypes of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). Mutations in hnRNPA1 encoding heterogeneous nuclear ribonucleoprotein (hnRNP) A1 are a rare genetic cause of ALS. Herein, marked clinical heterogeneity of FAS in a pedigree with a known hnRNPA1 variant was described to raise early ...

A lyophilized preparation of an unspecific peroxygenase variant from Agrocybe aegerita (rAaeUPO‐PaDa‐I‐H) is a highly effective catalyst for the oxygenation of a diverse range of N‐heterocyclic compounds. Scalable, high yielding and enantioselective biocatalytic oxygenations have been developed, including 27 preparative examples (ca.

Cytochrome c Oxidase Deficiency [PDF]
Cytochrome c oxidase (COX) is a complex enzyme composed of 13 subunits, three of which are encoded by the mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA). The other 10 subunits are encoded by the nuclear DNA, synthesized in the cytoplasm, and transported into the mitochondria.

Rcf1 Modulates Cytochrome c Oxidase Activity Especially Under Energy-Demanding Conditions
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 ...

Multilayered polyelectrolyte microcapsules: interaction with the enzyme cytochrome C oxidase. [PDF]
Cell-sized polyelectrolyte capsules functionalized with a redox-driven proton pump protein were assembled for the first time. The interaction of polyelectrolyte microcapsules, fabricated by electrostatic layer-by-layer assembly, with cytochrome c oxidase

Activity of respiratory chain cytochrome complexes and cytochromes content in the rat kidney mitochondria under different nutrients content in a diet [PDF]
An important role in ensuring the functioning of the respiratory chain belongs to the cytochrome part, which includes complexes III (ubiquinol-cytochrome c oxidoreductase) and IV (cytochrome c oxidase). The key components of these enzymatic complexes are

A biochemical approach to study the role of the terminal oxidases in aerobic respiration in Shewanella oneidensis MR-1. [PDF]
The genome of the facultative anaerobic γ-proteobacterium Shewanella oneidensis MR-1 encodes for three terminal oxidases: a bd-type quinol oxidase and two heme-copper oxidases, a A-type cytochrome c oxidase and a cbb 3-type oxidase.
