Structural role of the tyrosine residues of cytochrome c [PDF]
The tertiary structures of horse, tuna, Neurospora crassa, horse [Hse65,Leu67]- and horse [Hse65,Leu74]-cytochromes c were studied with high-resolution 1H n.m.r. spectroscopy.

Semisynthetic cytochrome c. [PDF]
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.

The role of biotransformation processes in mediating interactions between psychotropic drugs and natural products [PDF]
Many patients are not aware that natural products such as fruit juices or plant infusions can cause significant interactions with several drugs, some of which can be dangerous, especially when the medical treatment is for neurological or psychiatric ...

Cytochromes c of Campylobacter sputorum subspecies mucosalis [PDF]
Campylobacter sputorum subspecies mucosalis, the causative organism of porcine intestinal adenomatosis, will grow microaerophillically in the presence of hydrogen as an electron donor, and under these conditions contains a high complement of c-type ...

Ultrastructure and biochemical function of the mitochondria in respiratory-deficient mutant yeast induced by 4-nitroquinoline nitrogen oxide [PDF]
1. A respiratory-deficient mutant strain of yeast was obtained from wild strain of Saccharomyces servisiae by treatment with 4-nitroquinoline N-oxide. Ultrastructure and function of the wild or mutant strains and the mitochondrial fractions isolated from

The pio Operon Is Essential for Phototrophic Fe(II) Oxidation in Rhodopseudomonas palustris TIE-1 [PDF]
Phototrophic Fe(II)-oxidizing bacteria couple the oxidation of ferrous iron [Fe(II)] to reductive CO2 fixation by using light energy, but until recently, little has been understood about the molecular basis for this process. Here we report the discovery,

Characterisation of MtoD from Sideroxydans lithotrophicus: a cytochrome c electron shuttle used in lithoautotrophic growth [PDF]
The autotrophic Sideroxydans lithotrophicus ES-1 can grow by coupling the oxidation of ferrous iron to the reduction of oxygen. Soluble ferrous iron is oxidised at the surface of the cell by an MtoAB porin-cytochrome complex that functions as an electron

Thermodynamic Volume Cycles for Electron Transfer in the Cytochrome c Oxidase and for the Binding of Cytochrome c to Cytochrome c Oxidase [PDF]
Dilatometry is a sensitive technique for measuring volume changes occurring during a chemical reaction. We applied it to the reduction-oxidation cycle of cytochrome c oxidase, and to the binding of cytochrome c to the oxidase. We measured the volume changes that occur during the interconversion of oxidase intermediates.

Evolution of the Couple Cytochrome c and Cytochrome c Oxidase in Primates [PDF]
Mitochondrial energy metabolism has been affected by a broad set of ancient and recent evolutionary events. The oldest example is the endosymbiosis theory that led to mitochondria and a recently proposed example is adaptation to cold climate by anatomically modern human lineages.
