Reaction of caa3-type terminal cytochrome oxidase from the thermophilic bacterium PS3 with oxygen and carbon monoxide at low temperatures.

ABSTRACT: Reaction of O2 and CO with a caa3-type terminal cytochrome oxidase (EC 1.9.3.1) from the thermophilic bacterium PS3 grown with high aeration was studied at low temperatures. The CO recombination at the temperature range studied (-50 degrees C to -80 degrees C) followed first-order kinetics with an activation energy of 29.3 kJ/mol (7.0 kcal/mol). In the presence of O2 at -113 degrees C the photolysed reduced form binds O2 to form an 'oxy' intermediate similar to Compound A. At a higher temperature (-97 degrees C) another intermediate, similar to Compound B, is formed as a result of electron transfer from the enzyme to the liganded O2.

Pulsed cytochrome c oxidase from the thermophilic bacterium PS3.

Project description:A caa3-type terminal cytochrome c oxidase (EC 1.9.3.1) from the thermophilic bacterium PS3 containing three subunits showed conversion from resting into pulsed form. Upon pulsing (reduction and re-oxidation), the cytochrome c oxidase activity increased over 10-fold. This enhanced activity of the pulsed enzyme gradually decayed. Addition of phospholipids, necessary for the enzyme activity, did not affect this decay process. Small changes in the absorption spectrum were observed for the resting-into-pulsed transition and for H2O2 ligation to the pulsed enzyme. The e.p.r. spectrum of the resting enzyme was very similar to that of mitochondrial enzyme, but the transient g = 5, 1.78 and 1.69 set of e.p.r. signals, associated with the pulsed bovine heart oxidase, were not observed in the case of pulsed bacterium-PS3 enzyme.

The reaction of Pseudomonas aeruginosa cytochrome c oxidase with carbon monoxide.

Project description:The binding of CO to ascorbate-reduced Pseudomonas cytochrome oxidase was investigated by static-titration, stopped-flow and flash-photolytic techniques. Static-titration data indicated that the binding process was non-stoicheiometric, with a Hill number of 1.44. Stopped-flow kinetics obtained on the binding of CO to reduced Pseudomonas cytochrome oxidase were biphasic in form; the faster rate exhibited a linear dependence on CO concentration with a second-order rate constant of 2 X 10(4) M-1-s-1, whereas the slower reaction rapidly reached a pseudo-first-order rate limit at approx. 1s-1. The relative proportions of the two phases observed in stopped-flow experiments also showed a dependency on CO concentration, the slower phase increasing as the CO concentration decreased. The kinetics of CO recombination after flash-photolytic dissociation of the reduced Pseudomonas cytochrome oxidase-CO complex were also biphasic in character, both phases showing a linear pseudo-first-order rate dependence on CO concentration. The second-order rate constants were determined as 3.6 X 10(4)M-1-s-1 and 1.6 X 10(4)M-1-s-1 respectively. Again the relative proportions of the two phases varied with CO concentration, the slower phase predominating at low CO concentrations. CO dissociation from the enzyme-CO complex measured in the presence of O2 and NO indicated the presence of two rates, of the order of 0.03s-1 and 0.15s-1. When sodium dithionite was used as a reducing agent for the Pseudomonas cytochrome oxidase, the CO-combination kinetics observed by both stopped flow and flash photolysis were extremely complex and not able to be simply analysed.

Studies on partially reduced mammalian cytochrome oxidase. Reactions with carbon monoxide and oxygen.

Project description:A number of methods were used to prepare a species of mammalian cytochrome oxidase (EC 1.9.3.1, ferrocytochrome c-oxygen oxidoreductase) in which only cytochrome a(3) is reduced and in combination with CO. The kinetics of CO binding by cytochrome a(3) (2+) in this species is significantly different from that exhibited by cytochrome a(3) (2+) in the fully reduced enzyme. The second-order rate constant for combination was 5x10(4)m(-1).s(-1) and the ;off' constant was 3x10(-2)s(-1). The kinetic difference spectra cytochrome a(3) (2+)-cytochrome a(3) (2+)-CO reveal further differences between the mixed-valence and the fully reduced enzyme. The reaction between cytochrome a(3) (2+) and oxygen in the mixed-valence species was followed in flow-flash experiments and reveals a fast, oxygen-dependent (8x10(7)m(-1).s(-1) at low oxygen) rate followed by a slow process, whose rate is independent of oxygen but whose amplitude is dependent on [O(2)]. The fast oxygen-dependent reaction yields as the first product the so-called ;oxygenated' enzyme. We conclude from these experiments that the ligand-binding behaviour of cytochrome a(3) depends on the redox state of its partners, a fact which represents clear evidence for site-site interaction in this enzyme. The fact that oxygen reacts rapidly with this enzyme species in which only one component, namely cytochrome a(3), is reduced represents clear and unequivocal evidence that this is indeed the O(2)-binding site in cytochrome oxidase and may indicate that reduction of oxygen can proceed via single electron steps.

The reaction of cytochrome oxidase with oxygen in the fission yeast Schizosaccharomyces pombe 972h-. Studies at subzero temperatures and measurement of apparent oxygen affinity.

Project description:1. Cytochrome alpha 3 in whole-cell suspensions of the fission yeast Schizosaccharomyces pombe reacted in the reduced form with CO to give a photodissociable CO complex with absorption maxima at 429, 543 and 591 nm in CO-liganded reduced-minus-reduced difference spectra. 2. Other CO-bound haemoproteins, cytochromes P-420 and P-450, were not photodissociated under the conditions employed. 3. Measurements of the rates of reassociation of CO with cytochrome alpha 3 after flash photolysis over the temperature range from -101 to -109 degrees C gave a value for Eact. of 28.6 kJ/mol. 4. Between -94 and -106 degrees C, O2 reacted with cytochrome oxidase in intact cells to give an oxygenated intermediate (compound A). 5. At -70 degrees C compound A was converted into a second spectrally distinct intermediate (compound B). 6. Electron transport, indicated by the oxidation of cytochromes alpha + alpha 3 and cytochrome c, did not occur until the temperature was raised to -50 degrees C. 7. At room temperature cytochfome oxidase was oxidized to 50% of its steady-state concentration by 0.35 microM-O2.

Snapshot of an oxygen intermediate in the catalytic reaction of cytochrome <i>c</i> oxidase.

Project description:Cytochrome c oxidase (CcO) reduces dioxygen to water and harnesses the chemical energy to drive proton translocation across the inner mitochondrial membrane by an unresolved mechanism. By using time-resolved serial femtosecond crystallography, we identified a key oxygen intermediate of bovine CcO. It is assigned to the PR-intermediate, which is characterized by specific redox states of the metal centers and a distinct protein conformation. The heme a 3 iron atom is in a ferryl (Fe4+ = O2-) configuration, and heme a and CuB are oxidized while CuA is reduced. A Helix-X segment is poised in an open conformational state; the heme a farnesyl sidechain is H-bonded to S382, and loop-I-II adopts a distinct structure. These data offer insights into the mechanism by which the oxygen chemistry is coupled to unidirectional proton translocation.

The reaction of Pseudomonas aeruginosa cytochrome c-551 oxidase with oxygen.

Project description:The reaction of ascorbate-reduced Pseudomonas cytochrome oxidase with oxygen was studied by using stopped-flow techniques at pH 7.0 and 25 degrees C. The observed time courses were complex, the reaction consisting of three phases. Of these, only the fastest process, with a second-order rate constant of 3.3 X 10(4) M-1.S-1, was dependent on oxygen concentration. The two slower processes were first-order reactions with rates of 1.0 +/- 0.4s-1 and 0.1 +/- 0.03s-1. A kinetic titration experiment revealed that the enzyme had a relatively low affinity constant for oxygen, approx. 10(4)M-1. Kinetic difference spectra were determined for all three reaction phases, showing each to have different characteristics. The fast-phase difference spectrum showed that changes occurred at both the haem c and haem d1 components of the enzyme during this process. These changes were consistent with the haem c becoming oxidized, but with the haem d1 assuming a form that did not correspond to the normal oxidized state, a situation that was not restored even after the second kinetic phase, which reflected further changes in the haem d1 component. The results are discussed in terms of a kinetic scheme.

Cytochrome a620 in Tetrahymena pyriformis. Reactions with carbon monoxide and oxygen at subzero temperatures and photochemical action spectra.

Project description:1. Mitochondria-enriched fractions of the ciliate protozoan Tetrahymena pyriformis ST contained CO-reacting cytochromes b560 and a620. 2. A non-photodissociable oxygen-containing compound of cytochrome a620 was formed in whole cell suspensions at -114 degrees C after photolysis of CO in the presence of 200 microM-O2. 3. Electron transport, indicated by the oxidation of cytochrome a620 and cytochrome c, occurred at temperatures higher than -72 degrees C. 4. Photochemical action spectra for the relief of respiratory inhibition of whole cells by CO obtained by using a liquid dye laser indicate that the only CO-reacting terminal oxidase detectable was cytochrome a620. 5. It is concluded that the alternative electron transport chains in this organism utilize non-cytochrome terminal oxidases.

Low-temperature kinetics of the reaction of oxygen and solubilized cytochrome oxidase.

Project description:The reaction of solubilized cytochrome oxidase in the fully reduced state with O2 at low temperatures reveals components with characteristics similar to those observed with the membrane-bound oxidase, namely compounds A and B, which are proposed to be 'oxy' and 'peroxy' compounds respectively. Similar species are identified in both solubilized and membrane-bound oxidases; the reaction velocity constant for the reation with O2 and the dissociation constant are decreased 2-3-fold in the solubilied preparation as compared with the membrane-bound species, owing to decreased reactivity towards O2 in the former. The oxidase prepared in the mixed-valence state shows the distinctive absorption band characteristic of compound C, identified in the membrane-bound oxidase. The assignment of the alpha, beta, gamma and near-i.r. absorption bands to possible valence states of these compounds is made.

Carbon monoxide-dependent transcriptional changes in a thermophilic, carbon monoxide-utilizing, hydrogen-evolving bacterium Calderihabitans maritimus KKC1 revealed by transcriptomic analysis.

Project description:Calderihabitans maritimus KKC1 is a thermophilic, carbon monoxide (CO)-utilizing, hydrogen-evolving bacterium that harbors seven cooS genes for anaerobic CO dehydrogenases and six hyd genes for [NiFe] hydrogenases and capable of using a variety of electron acceptors coupled to CO oxidation. To understand the relationships among these unique features and the transcriptional adaptation of the organism to CO, we performed a transcriptome analysis of C. maritimus KKC1 grown under 100% CO and N2 conditions. Of its 3114 genes, 58 and 32 genes were significantly upregulated and downregulated in the presence of CO, respectively. A cooS-ech gene cluster, an "orphan" cooS gene, and bidirectional hyd genes were upregulated under CO, whereas hydrogen-uptake hyd genes were downregulated. Transcriptional changes in anaerobic respiratory genes supported the broad usage of electron acceptors in C. maritimus KKC1 under CO metabolism. Overall, the majority of the differentially expressed genes were oxidoreductase-like genes, suggesting metabolic adaptation to the cellular redox change upon CO oxidation. Moreover, our results suggest a transcriptional response mechanism to CO that involves multiple transcription factors, as well as a CO-responsive transcriptional activator (CooA). Our findings shed light on the diverse mechanisms for transcriptional and metabolic adaptations to CO in CO-utilizing and hydrogen-evolving bacteria.

Oxygen Activation and Energy Conservation by Cytochrome c Oxidase.

Project description:This review focuses on the type A cytochrome c oxidases (C cO), which are found in all mitochondria and also in several aerobic bacteria. C cO catalyzes the respiratory reduction of dioxygen (O2) to water by an intriguing mechanism, the details of which are fairly well understood today as a result of research for over four decades. Perhaps even more intriguingly, the membrane-bound C cO couples the O2 reduction chemistry to translocation of protons across the membrane, thus contributing to generation of the electrochemical proton gradient that is used to drive the synthesis of ATP as catalyzed by the rotary ATP synthase in the same membrane. After reviewing the structure of the core subunits of C cO, the active site, and the transfer paths of electrons, protons, oxygen, and water, we describe the states of the catalytic cycle and point out the few remaining uncertainties. Finally, we discuss the mechanism of proton translocation and the controversies in that area that still prevail.
