Abstract
The isomerization of horse-heart ferricytochrome c caused by varying pH was kinetically studied by using circular dichroism (CD) and optical absorption stopped-flow techniques. In the pH range of 7--13, the existence of the three different forms of ferricytochrome c (pH less than 10, pH 10--12, and pH greater than 12) was indicated from the statistical difference CD spectra. On the basis of analyses of the stopped-flow traces in the near-ultraviolet and Soret wavelength regions, the isomerization of ferricytochrome c from neutral form to the above three alkaline forms was interpreted as follows (1) below pH 10, the replacement of the intrinsic ligand of methionine residue by lysine residue occurs; (2) between pH 10 and 12, the uncoupling of the polypeptide chain from close proximity of the heme group occurs first, followed by the interconversion of the intrinsic ligands; and (3) above pH 12, hydroxide form of ferricytochrome c is formed, though the replacement of the intrinsic ligand by extrinsic ligands may occur via different routes from those below pH 12. The CD changes at 288 nm and in the Soret region caused by the pH-jump (down) from pH 6.0 to 1.6 were compared with the appearance of the 620-nm absorption band ascribed to the formation of the high-spin form of ferricytochrome c. Both CD and absorption changes indicated that the isomerization at pH 1.6 consisted of two processes: one proceeded within the dead-time (about 2 ms) of the stopped-flow apparatus and the other proceeded at a determinable rate with the apparatus. On the basis of these results, the isomerization of ferricytochrome c at pH 1.6 was explained as follows: (1) the transition from the low-spin form to the high-spin forms occurs within about 2 ms, the dead-time of the stopped-flow apparatus; and (2) the polypeptide chain is unfolded after the formation of the high-spin form.

Abstract
Adenosine 5'-triphosphate (ATP), adenosine 5'-diphosphate (ADP), and inorganic pyrophosphate partially inhibit the oxidation of exogenous cytochrome c by cytochrome c oxidase of submitochondrial particles (with or without detergent treatment) or by a purified preparation when it is assayed polarographically in buffers of nonbinding ions at pH 7.8. ATP is somewhat more inhibitory than ADP. The inhibition is never greater than 50%, and it is always less than an equal concentration of Mg2+ ions is present or when the assays are run at pH 6. In contrast, the effect of ATP, ADP, and pyrophosphate on oxidase assays run spectrophotometrically is a similar slight stimulation of the oxidase of submitochondrial particles treated with deoxycholate and little or no effect on purified oxidase. The reaction of the oxidase of submitochondrial particles with the endogenous cytochrome c is stimulated by the nucleotides, as is the reduced nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NADH) oxidase activity. The observations can be explained by binding of ATP, ADP, or pyrophosphate to cytochrome c so that the formation of an especially reactive combination of cytochrome c and cytochrome oxidase previously postulated [Smith, L., Davies, H. C., & Nava, M. E. (1979) Biochemistry 18, 3140] is prevented. The data give no evidence that respiration via cytochrome c oxidase is regulated physiologically by direct effects of ATP or ADP on its activity.

Abstract
A highly purified protein methylase III from Neurospora crassa or Saccharomyces cerevisiae specifically methylates a single lysine residue of position 72 of horse heart cytochrome c. The enzymatically methylated cytochrome c has been separated from the unmethylated counterpart species by isoelectric focusing. Simultaneously, the pI values of these two species were found to be 9.49 and 10.03, respectively. Since methyl substitution increases the basicity associated with the epsilon-amino group of lysine residues, the observed decrease in pI value is in opposition to the predicted increase. Space-filling models revealed the possibility of a hydrogen bond between the oxygen of amide of residue-70 asparagine and the epsilon-amino nitrogen of residue-72 lysine in unmethylated horse heart cytochrome C. the enzymatic methylation of residue-72 lysine tends to dissociate this hydrogen bond, thereby possibly inducing the shift of 'effective charge' of the protein molecule. This paper also deals with the pI values of cytochromes c from 13 different sources, determined by the isoelectric focusing technique.

Abstract
A large-scale isolation method for cytochrome c1 from beef heart is presented, based in principle on the procedure of Yu et al. (Yu, C.A., Yu, L. and King, T.E. (1972) J. Biol. Chem. 247, 1012--1019). Optimal solubilization of cytochrome c1 from succinate-cytochrome c oxidoreductase was achieved with 15% beta-mercaptoethanol, 1.5% cholate, 0.5% deoxycholate in 8% saturated ammoniun sulphate. The protein is purfied to a higher degree by chromatography on DEAE-cellulose and Ultrogel AcA 44. The method is reproducible and gives highly purified cytochrome c1 with a yield from succinate-cytochrome c oxidoreductase of 40%. The purified cytochrome c1 contains 32 nmol of heme/mg protein and has a spectral heme-to-protein ratio (Ared417nm/Ax276nm) of 2.7. Reduced cytochrome c1 is oxidized very rapidly by ferricytochrome c (k = 3 . 10(7) M-1 . S-1 at 10 degrees C, 100 mM potassium phosphate (pH 7.0) and 1% Tween 20). Polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis in the presence of sodium dodecyl sulphate shows that the isolated protein consists of one peptide, with a molecular weight of 31 000, carrying the chromophore. In the presence of 1% sodium cholate or 1% Tween 80, cytochrome c1 is in the monomeric state, whereas at lower concentrations of detergent the protein aggregates. The aggregation of cytochrome c1 is found to be reversible.

Abstract
About 45% of the protein can be removed from oxidized cytochrome c oxidase by treatment with proteolytic enzymes under a variety of conditions, leading to an increased heme to protein ratio. The principal spectroscopic parameters of cytochrome c oxidase are retained in the protease-treated enzyme. Of the overall catalytic activity 20% remained after digestion; the electron-transfer reactions were impaired but the affinity for cytochrome c appeared unchanged. Proteolysis resulted in removal of the hydrophobic subunit III and most of the smaller hydrophilic subunits, leaving a core, which basically consists of the two largest subunits I and II. The subunits I and/or II carry the prosthetic groups of the enzyme and at least one of the cytochrome c binding sites. The smaller subunits, however, are essential for optimal electron transfer and possibly have other functions as well.

Abstract
Under continuous illumination the CO binding curve of reduced carboxy-cytochrome c oxidase maintains the shape of the binding curve in the dark. The apparent dissociation constant calculated from the binding curves at various light intensities is a linear function of the light intensity. Marked differences are observed between the light-induced difference spectra of the fully reduced carboxy-cytochrome c oxidase and the mixed-valence carboxy-cytochrome c oxidase. These differences are enhanced in the presence of ferricyanide as an electron acceptor and are explained by partial oxidation of cytochrome a3 in the mixed-valence enzyme after photodissociation. Upon addition of CO to partially reduced formate cytochrome c oxidase (a2+a3 3+ . HCOOH) the cytochrome a3 2+. CO compound is formed completely with a concomitant oxidation of cytochrome a and the Cu associated with cytochrome a. During photodissociation of the CO compound the formate rebinds to cytochrome a3 and cytochrome a and its associated Cu are simultaneously reduced. These electron transfer processes are fully reversible since in the dark the a3 3+ . HCOOH compound is dissociated slowly with a concomitant formation of the a3 2+ . CO compound and oxidation of cytochrome a. When these experiments are carried out in the presence of cytochrome c, both cytochrome c and cytochrome a are reduced upon illumination of the mixed-valence carboxy-cytochrome c oxidase. In the dark both cytochrome c and cytochrome a are reoxidized when formate dissociates from cytochrome a3 and the a2+ 3 . CO compound is formed back. Thus, in this system we are able to reverse and to modulate the redox state of the different components of the final part of the respiratory chain by light.

Abstract
NADPH-ferredoxin reductase (NADPH:ferredoxin oxidoreductase, EC 1.6.7.1) has been identified in rat liver mitochondria and purified to homogeneity as judged by sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) gel electrophoresis. The protein was detected by its ability to reconstitute NADPH-cytochrome c reductase in the presence of adrenal ferredoxin. The purified protein had properties very similar to adrenal NADPH-ferredoxin reductase. The molecular weight was 52 000, as estimated by gel filtration. On SDS-polyacrylamide gels, mobility was identical to that of adrenal NADPH-ferredoxin reductase (Mr = 52 000). The enzyme exhibited a typical oxidized flavoprotein absorbance spectrum with maxima at 269, 377 and 450 nm and gave an absorbance ratio A450nm/A269nm of 0.138. The fluorescence excitation spectrum was identical to that of FAD. In the presence of NADPH and a ferredoxin, the reductase was found to be active in a reconstituted cytochrome P-450-dependent steroid 26-hydroxylase, which was recently isolated from rat liver mitochondria (Pedersen, J.I. (1978) FEBS Lett. 85, 35-39).

Abstract
For immunochemical and evolutionary reasons we determined the primary structure of cytochrome c from two strains of laboratory mice. Thioacetylthioethane and thioacetylthioglycolic acid were used in addition to conventional reagents for sequence determinations. The sequence was found to be identical with that of the rabbit except for residues 44 and 89 and consistent with the peptide compositional data reported by Hennig (Hennig, B. (1975), Eur. J. Biochem. 55, 167-183). The rat cytochrome c cymotryptic peptides were identical with those of the mouse in amino acid composition and amino-terminal residues. Further, peptide maps of cytochromes c of the guinea pig and two strains of rat indicate that all these animals have the same cytochrome c as the laboratory mouse. It is concluded that rodent cytochromes c are evolutionarily conservative and that there is no evidence for a generation-time effect in cytochrome c evolution.

Abstract
Direct chemical titrations of reduced, purified cytochrome aa3 were monitored at 604 nm. Anaerobic oxidation by potassium ferricyanide or 1,1'-bis(hydroxymethyl)-ferricinium ion was compared with the natural substrate, molecular oxygen. The four electrons from reduced cytochrome aa3 were donated to one oxygen molecule, resulting in a linear titration with only fully oxidized or fully reduced enzyme molecules present. Unlike the linear or sigmoidal titrations which resulted from various reductive titrations reported previously, pronounced hyperbolic curves were obtained with the chemical oxidants. The midpoint potential values exhibited by the four metal centers of cytochrome aa3 were determined by computer simulation of the titration curves. A high potential pair of components (heme a = 340 mV, Cu = 340 mV) and a low potential pair (heme a = 220 mV, Cu = 240 mV) were observed, consistent with literature values. Unique to these equilibrium studies was a split in the heme a extinction coefficients at 604 nm. The low potential heme a component contributed 80-85% to the total absorbance change. A polarographic assay was used to verify that the integrity of cytochrome aa3 remained intact during equilibrium titrations spanning several hours. These experimental results indicate that simple chemical reversibility does not exist for cytochrome aa3 under anaerobic conditions.

Abstract
Spectroelectrochemical studies are presented for the carbon monoxide complex of isolated, purified cytochrome c oxidase (EC 1.9.3.1) in solutions saturated with carbon monoxide. The results indicate a stoichiometry of three equivalents per oxidase-carbon monoxide complex molecule. Formal reduction potentials (Eo) of the two copper and one heme component at pH 7.0 were obtained by means of quantitative absorbance-charge titrations in the absence and presence of cytochrome c, and by means of a Nernstian "Minnaert" plot in the presence of cytochrome c. Analysis of the absorbance-charge curves from these titrations gave an indirect determination of the high potential, "invisible" copper component. The copper potentials in the carbon monoxide complex were found to be relatively unchanged with respect to those of the native enzyme. The Eo values obtained were: high potential ("invisible") copper (340 +/- 20 mV (NHE)), low potential copper (190 +/- 20 mV), and low potential heme (250 +/- 10 mV).

Abstract
The purification of iodinated (E. B. McGowan and E. Stellwagen (1970), Biochemistry 9, 3074) and of nitrated (M. Sokolovsky et al. (1970), Biochemistry 9, 5113) cytochromes c resulted in the recovery from the former preparation of diiododityrosyl-cytochrome c (DIDT-) with modification of Tyr-67 and Tyr-74, and, from the latter, a mononitromonotyrosyl-cytochrome c (MNMT-), with modification of Tyr-67, and mononitrodityrosyl-cytochrome c (MNDT-), with the added modification of Tyr-48. The three purified preparations were conformationally characterized using pH-spectroscopy, circular dichroism, thermal denaturation, reducibility with ascorbate, autoxidation with molecular oxygen, and binding with CO. These results are related to the two aspects of biological function, reducibility, measured by NADH-cytochrome c reductase, and oxidizability, with cytochrome c oxidase, as well as to structure-function relationships in the protein. MNMT-cytochrome c was found to be, structurally and conformationally, a single isomer, reducible with ascorbate, with a small, but definite affinity for both oxidation with molecular oxygen and binding of CO. Conformationally, in both valence states of the metal atom, it represents a molecular form with native-like conformation with small but definite perturbations in the immediate vicinity of the heme group, reflected by the destabilization of the Met-80-S-Fe linkage. MNMT-ferricytochrome c exhibits a pK of 6.2 for the transformation of the low-spin, native-like spectral form II containing the 695-nm band to form lacking lacking the 695-nm band. The isomerization at pK = 6.2, when analyzed in terms of the isomerization of the native protein with a pK of 9.2 and the nature of the group involved, indicates that Tyr-67 is not involved in the isomerization of the modified preparation, and possibly not in the native protein as well. In terms of biological function, the partial derangement of redecibility (24%) and the unaltered oxidizability point to the functional significance of Tyr-67, and provide another example of selectivity between the two aspects of physiological functional function, in agreement with the two-function, two-path operational model of the protein. The MNDT- and DIDT-ferricytochromes c exhibited physicochemical properties indicative of gross derangement of both the conformation of the protein as well as of the coordination configuration of the metal atom. The complete inability to accept an electron from NADH-cytochrome c reductase in both cases, and the retention of 50% of the oxidizability property of DIDT-cytochrome c, were interpreted to be the result of conformational derangement, rather than the added modification of Tyr-48 or of Tyr-74.

Abstract
An improved procedure for the preparation of cobalt-cytochrome c has been developed. Various factors influencing the cobalt insertion process are discussed. The optical spectra of cobalt-cytochrome c suggest a six-coordinated species. The spectral shifts occurring with oxidation-reduction are compared with those observed for deoxy-cobaltohemoglobin and ferrocytochrome c and attributed to the effect of d(z2) electron on stereoelectronic interactions between the axial ligands and the porphyrin pi systems. Cobalt-cytochrome c has Em,7 = -140 +/- 20 mV as compared to an Em,7 of +250mV for ferrocytochrome c. An explanation for this negative Em,7 is offered. Cobaltocytochrome c is oxidized by cytochrome oxidase at about 45% of the rate for native cytochrome c. On the other hand cobalticytochrome c was not reduced by microsomal NADH or NADPH cytochrome c reductase nor by mitochondrial NADH or succinate cytochrome c reductase. It appears that the integrity of the reductase binding site is destroyed and the oxidase binding site has been modified by cobalt substitution.

Abstract
The reaction between cytochrome c oxidase and ferrocytochrome c has been investigated by the stopped-flow method. It has been found that only one electron acceptor, a heme group, in the oxidase is rapidly reduced by cytochrome c. The presence of N3- does not affect the reduction of the acceptor, which supports the hypothesis that this is identical with cytochrome a. The results are consistent with the existence of a simple equilibrium between cytochrome a and cytochrome c: c-2 + a-3+ in equilibrium c-3+ + a-2+ with an equilibrium constant corresponding to an oxidation-reduction potential of cytochrome a 30 mV higher than that for cytochrome c at pH 7.4. The oxidation-reduction potential of the a-3+ /a-2+ couple, 285 mV (based on a potential of 255 mV for cytochrome c), and the optical properties of the reduced form indicate that it is identical with neither of the reduced hemes seen in potentiometric titrations. The oxidase species resulting from the rapid reduction of cytochrome a by cytochrome c is proposed to represent a metastable intermediate state which, under anaerobic conditions, eventually is transformed into a more stable state characterized by a reduced high-potential heme.

Abstract
N-bromosuccinimide-cytochromes c (Myer, Y. P. (1972), Biochemistry 11, 4195) and formyl-cytochrome c (Aviram, I and Schejter, A. (1971), Biochim. Biophys. Acta 229, 113) have been chromatographically purified, and the resulting components have been characterized in terms of their structure, conformation, and function. The activity measurements are considered in terms of the oxidizability, as the transference of an electron to solubilized cytochrome c oxidase, and reducibility, as the tendency to accept an electron from NADH-cytochrome c reductase. Conformational characterization has been carried out by absorption measurements, pH-spectroscopic behavior, circular dichroism, thermal denaturation, ionization of phenolic hydroxyls, the tendency to form the CO complex, and autoxidation with molecular oxygen. NBS-cytochrome c yields two major components, the relative proportions of which, with increasing modification of the protein, exhibit a pattern typical of the formation of the two in a consecutive manner. The first product contains the modification of the Trp-59 and Met-65 side chains, and the second contains the added modification of Met-80. The former in both valence states of iron is more or less like the native protein, except for an apparently slightly loosened heme crevice; the latter, as in other modifications involving modification of centrally coordinated Met-80, was found to be in a conformational state characteristic of the native protein with a disrupted central coordination complex, a loosened heme crevice, and small, but finite derangement of the polypeptide conformation. Functionally, the first component reflected 55% of the reducibility property and an unimpaired oxidizability property, while the latter exhibited derangement of both aspects of cytochrome c activity. Formyl-cytochrome c yielded a single component with modification of Trp-59. Conformationally, in both valence states, it is a molecular form with a disrupted central coordination complex, a loosened heme crevice, and gross derangement of the overall protein conformation. It exhibits a minimal reducibility property, 12%, whereas it retains a native-like tendency to transfer an electron to cytochrome c oxidase. The data from the NBS-cytochrome c components are analyzed with reference to the two forms in the earlier studies of the unpurified preparations. The results are found to be in agreement with one another. The selectivity between the reducibility and the oxidizability exhibited by the first NBS component and formyl-cytochrome c, irrespective of significant differences in the conformational and coordinational configurations of the two, has been viewed in light of a two-path, two-function model for oxidoreduction, as well as with reference to conformational and structural requirements for the oxidizability and reducibility properties of the molecule.
