Pulsed cytochrome c oxidase from the thermophilic bacterium PS3.


ABSTRACT: 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.
