Cytochrome oxidase requirements in Bordetella reveal insights into evolution towards life in the mammalian respiratory tract. [PDF]
Little is known about oxygen utilization during infection by bacterial respiratory pathogens. The classical Bordetella species, including B. pertussis, the causal agent of human whooping cough, and B. bronchiseptica, which infects nearly all mammals, are

Myiasis caused by Dermatobia hominis in Mexico: morphological and molecular identification using the cytochrome oxidase I gene [PDF]
Myiasis caused by Dermatobia hominis , the human botfly, is frequent in the Americas, however, scarce morphological and molecular information exist regarding this dipteran. We describe three cases in urban areas of Mexico were D.

Phylogenetic and functional analysis of cyanobacterial Cytochrome c6-like proteins
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.

Low Cytochrome Oxidase 1 Links Mitochondrial Dysfunction to Atherosclerosis in Mice and Pigs. [PDF]
Cytochrome oxidase IV complex regulates energy production in mitochondria. Therefore, we determined the relation of COX genes with atherosclerosis in mice and pigs.First, we compared atherosclerosis in the aortic arch of age-matched (24 weeks) C57BL/6J ...

Cytochrome and cytochrome oxidase [PDF]
Abstract It was previously shown that the addition of cytochrome c to a heart-muscle preparation greatly increases its power of catalysing the oxidation of such substances as p-phenylene diamine, hydroquinone, cysteine and ascorbic acid.

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 ...

Cytochrome Oxidase of Cactus [PDF]
The present autlhors have isolated a particleassociated cytochrome oxidase from the phylloclades of cactus plant and studied its kinetics. To our knowledge, this is the first report on cytoclhrome oxidase from a crassulacean plant. Tender phylloclades of Nopalea dejecta SalmDyck were ground with 5 volumes of chilled medium in a Waring Blendor operated ...
