Bacterial TANGO2 homologs are heme-trafficking proteins that facilitate biosynthesis of cytochromes c [PDF]
mBio, 2023 Heme, an essential molecule for virtually all living organisms, acts primarily as a cofactor in a large number of proteins. However, how heme is mobilized from the site of synthesis to the locations where hemoproteins are assembled remains largely ...

Cytochromes c in Archaea: distribution, maturation, cell architecture and the special case of Ignicoccus hospitalis [PDF]
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2015 Cytochromes c (Cytc) are widespread electron transfer proteins and important enzymes in the global nitrogen and sulfur cycles. The distribution of Cytc in more than 300 archaeal proteomes deduced from sequence was analyzed with computational methods ...

Electron transport across the cell envelope via multiheme c-type cytochromes in Geobacter sulfurreducens [PDF]
Frontiers in ChemistryExtracellular electron transfer (EET) enables certain microorganisms to respire using soluble and insoluble extracellular electron acceptors by transporting electrons across the cell envelope. Among these, G. sulfurreducens serves as a model organism for

Silencing, positive selection and parallel evolution: busy history of primate cytochromes C. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2011 Cytochrome c (cyt c) participates in two crucial cellular processes, energy production and apoptosis, and unsurprisingly is a highly conserved protein.

Mapping of redox state of mitochondrial cytochromes in live cardiomyocytes using Raman microspectroscopy. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2012 This paper presents a nonivasive approach to study redox state of reduced cytochromes c, c1 and b of complexes II and III in mitochondria of live cardiomyocytes by means of Raman microspectroscopy. For the first time with the proposed approach we perform

Activity of respiratory chain cytochrome complexes and cytochromes content in the rat kidney mitochondria under different nutrients content in a diet [PDF]
The Ukrainian Biochemical Journal, 2023 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
