Laminar model for the joint development of ocular dominance columns and CO blobs in V1 [PDF]
In this paper, we present a multi--layer, activity--dependent model for the joint development of ocular dominance (OD) columns and cytochrome oxidase (CO) blobs in primate primary visual cortex (V1). For simplicity, we focus on layers 4C and 2/3 with both layers receiving direct thalamic inputs and layer 4C sending vertical projections to layer 2/3 ...

Catching proteins in liquid helium droplets [PDF]
An experimental approach is presented that allows for the incorporation of large mass/charge selected ions in liquid helium droplets. It is demonstrated that droplets can be efficiently doped with a mass/charge selected amino acid as well as with the much bigger m$\approx$12 000 amu protein Cytochrome C in selected charge states.

Higd1a is a positive regulator of cytochrome c oxidase
Significance We identified hypoxia-inducible domain family, member 1A (Higd1a) as a positive regulator of cytochrome c oxidase (CcO). CcO, the terminal component of the mitochondrial electron transfer system, reductively converts molecular oxygen to ...

Abstract When a purified bovine heart cytochrome c oxidase was polarographically assayed by a method involving initial contact of the enzyme with Tween 80, very high turnover numbers were observed at low enzyme concentrations, e.g. 5 to 10 mµm cytochrome a3.

FAM136A depletion upregulated ROS production, reduced mitochondrial membrane potential (ΔΨ) and ATP production, and upregulated expression of PCK1, PCK2, HMGCS1, and HMGCS2. The expression of both TOMM22 and TOMM20 was also upregulated. FAM136A depletion reduced HCCS that produce holocytochrome c by combining heme to apocytochrome c, and reduced the ...

Hydrophilic Chitosan Derivatives: Synthesis and Applications
A benign and low‐cost alternative for fossil‐fuel‐sourced polymers, chitosan has tremendous potential because of its bioactivity, biocompatibility, biodegradability, and low toxicity. Synthetic pathways for chitosan derivatives with improved water solubility, and their associated applications, are explored. With the change in global direction towards a

Protein Adsorption into Mesopores: A Combination of Electrostatic Interaction, Counterion Release and van der Waals Forces [PDF]
Bovine heart cytochrome c has been immobilized into the mesoporous silica host material SBA-15 in both its native folded and urea-unfolded state. The comparison of the two folding states' behavior casts doubt on the commonly used explanation of cytochrome c adsorption, i.e. the electrostatic interaction model.

Human mitochondrial COX1 assembly into cytochrome c oxidase at a glance
Mitochondria provide the main portion of cellular energy in form of ATP produced by the F1Fo ATP synthase, which uses the electrochemical gradient, generated by the mitochondrial respiratory chain (MRC). In human mitochondria, the MRC is composed of four

Protonmotive cooperativity in cytochrome c oxidase
Cooperative linkage of solute binding at separate binding sites in allosteric proteins is an important functional attribute of soluble and membrane bound hemoproteins. Analysis of proton/electron coupling at the four redox centers, i.e. Cu(A), heme a, heme a(3) and Cu(B), in the purified bovine cytochrome c oxidase in the unliganded, CO-liganded and CN-

Upregulation of Mitochondrial Content in Cytochrome c Oxidase Deficient Fibroblasts. [PDF]
Cytochrome-c-oxidase (COX) deficiency is a frequent cause of mitochondrial disease and is associated with a wide spectrum of clinical phenotypes. We studied mitochondrial function and biogenesis in fibroblasts derived from the Cohen (CDs) rat, an animal ...
