The Y120A HCCS/cytochrome c cocomplex purified with WT-levels of heme; therefore, we conclude that the weak heme interactions at the active site of the Y120A HCCS mutant are stabilized by the binding of the cytochrome c substrate, as proposed for WT HCCS.
The predicted 2OB binding site on the cytochrome bo terminal oxidase appears at the interaction site between CyoB and CyoC.
The calculation of descriptors involves a flexible docking of the molecule to the rigid binding cite of the cytochrome (in this study the AutoDock Vina tool was used).
Interestingly, the charge neutralizations are parallel to those observed at the binding site for cytochrome c on COX in anthropoids, where the binding site changes reduced the electrostatic interaction between the docked molecules [ 15].
Within Apaf-1, the signal about the binding of cytochrome c to the WD domains should be mechanistically transmitted towards the nucleotide-binding domain.
A pair of neighboring lysine residues Lys7/Lys8 provides a connection between the two WD domains, creating a relatively rigid link at the bottom of the cytochrome c binding pocket (Figs. 2 and 3c).
Similarly, natural nonheme proteins can also be designed to bind heme in a manner consistent with the cytochrome binding motif.
The two candidate genes associated with "oxygen binding", CYP2F1 and CYP4B1, belong to the cytochrome P450 superfamily (CYP).
Apparently, the higher number of lysine residues facilitated the binding of cytochrome c to its functional targets.
Cyanide causes cellular death by blocking adenosine triphosphate (ATP) production through the binding of cytochrome c oxidase.
