The mechanism of reaction of fully reduced membrane-bound cytochrome oxidase with oxygen at 176K.

ABSTRACT: 1. The results of non-linear optimization studies on the mechanism of reaction of fully reduced cytochrome oxidase with O2 at 176K are presented. The analysis is carried out on data obtained by means of dual-wavelength multi-channel spectroscopy at three wavelength pairs (604-630, 608-630 and 830-940 nm) and at three O2 concentrations (60, 200 and 1180 micron). The only model that satisfies the triple requirement of a standard deviation within the standard error of the experimental data, good determination of the optimized parameters and a random distribution of residuals is a three-species sequential mechanism. 2. On the basis of the optimized values of the relative absorption coefficients of the intermediates at each wavelength obtained from the present paper together with data from low-temperature trapping, e.p.r. and magnetic-susceptibility studies, the possible valence states of the metal centres in each of the intermediates are discussed.

The mechanism of reaction of ferricyanide-pretreated mixed-valence-state membrane-bound cytochrome oxidase with oxygen at 173 K.

Project description:1. The results of non-linear optimization studies on the mechanism of reaction of ferricyanide-pretreated mixed-valence-state cytochrome oxidase with O2 at 173 K are presented. The analysis is carried out on data obtained by means of dual-wavelength multi-channel spectroscopy at four wavelength pairs (444-463 nm, 604-630 nm, 608-630 nm and 830-940 nm) and at two O2 concentrations (360 micron and 520 micron). The only model that satisfies the triple requirement of a standard deviation within the standard error of the experimental data, a random distribution of residuals and good determination of the optimized parameters, is a three-intermediate sequential mechanism. 2. On the basis of the optimized values of the relative absorption coefficients of the intermediates at each wavelength obtained from the present paper together with data from optical wavelength scanning and e.p.r. spectroscopy obtained by low-temperature trapping studies, the possible valence states of the metal centres in each of the intermediates are discussed.

Low-temperature kinetics of the reactions of fully reduced membrane-bound cytochrome oxidase with oxygen in the Soret, alpha and near-infrared regions.

Project description:The kinetics of the reaction of fully reduced membrane-bound cytochrome oxidase with O2 obtained in the Soret, alpha and near-i.r. regions were analysed, and the contributions of the three intermediates of the reaction [Clore & Chance (1978) Biochem. J. 173, 799--810] to seven wavelength pairs (430--463, 444--463, 590--630, 608--630, 740--940, 790--940 and 830--940 nm) were determined. The nature of the intermediates is discussed on the basis of the data in the present paper together with data in the literature from optical wavelength scanning, e.p.r., i.r. and magnetic-susceptibility studies.

The kinetics and thermodynamics of the reaction of solid-state fully reduced membrane-bound cytochrome oxidase with carbon monoxide as studied by dual-wavelength multichannel spectroscopy and flash photolysis.

Project description:1. The results of non-linear optimization studies on the mechanism of reaction of solid-state fully reduced membrane-bound cytochrome oxidase with CO over the 178--203 K range are presented. The analysis is carried out on data obtained by dual-wavelength multichannel spectroscopy at three wavelength pairs (444--463 nm, 590--630 nm and 608--630 nm), which yield three distinct progress curves. The only model that satisfies the triple requirement of a standard deviation within the standard error of the data, a random distribution of residuals and good determination of the optimized parameters is a two-species sequential mechanism: flash photolysis yields unliganded cytochrome oxidase and free CO, which then recombine to form species Ic; Ic is then converted into species IIc, which is identical with the cytochrome oxidase-CO complex existing before flash photolysis. All the thermodynamic parameters describing this model are calculated. 2. On the basis of the data obtained from this paper, together with data from potentiometric studies, magnetic susceptibility measurements and i.r. spectroscopy, the chemical identity of the species is suggested.

Characterization of the low-temperature intermediates of the reaction of fully reduced soluble cytochrome oxidase with oxygen by electron-paramagnetic-resonance and optical spectroscopy.

Project description:The reaction of fully reduced soluble bovine heart cytochrome oxidase with O2 at 173K was investigated by low-temperature optical and e.p.r. spectroscopy, and the kinetics of the reaction were analysed by non-linear optimization techniques. The only e.p.r. signals seen during the course of the reaction are those attributable to low-spin cytochrome a3+ and CuA2+. Quantitative analysis of e.p.r. signals shows that, at the end point of the reaction at 173K, nearly 100% of CuA is in the cupric state but only about 40% of cytochrome a is in the ferric low-spin state. The optical spectra recorded at this stage of the reaction show incomplete oxidation of haem and the absence of a 655 nm absorption band. The only reaction scheme that accounts for both the e.p.r. and optical data is a four-intermediate mechanism involving a branching pathway. The reaction is initiated when fully reduced cytochrome oxidase reacts with O2 to form intermediate I. This is then converted into either intermediate IIA or intermediate IIB. Of these, intermediate IIB is a stable end product at 173 K, but intermediate IIA is converted into intermediate III, which is the stable state at 173 K in this branch of the mechanism. The kinetic analysis of the e.p.r. data allows the unambiguous assignments of the valence states of cytochrome a and CuA in the intermediates. Intermediate I contains cytochrome a2+ and CuA+, intermediate IIA contains low-spin cytochroma a3+ and CuA+, intermediate IIB contains cytochrome a2+ and CuA2+, and intermediate III contains low-spin cytochrome a3+ and CuA2+. The electronic state of the O2-binding CuBa3 couple during the reoxidation of cytochrome oxidase is discussed in terms of an integrated structure containing CuB, cytochrome a3 and O2.

The reaction of fully reduced cytochrome c oxidase with oxygen studied by flow-flash spectrophotometry at room temperature. Evidence for new pathways of electron transfer.

Project description:Absorption changes during the O2 reaction of reduced bovine cytochrome c oxidase were investigated by the rapid-reaction technique of flow-flash spectrophotometry in the Soret, visible and near-i.r. spectral regions. New features in the time courses of absorption change were observed relative to the earlier findings reported by Greenwood & Gibson [(1967) J. Biol. Chem. 242, 1782-1787]. These new features arise in the Soret and near-i.r. regions and allow the reaction to be described at all wavelengths as a composite of three exponential processes. There is a rapid O2-sensitive phase detectable in the Soret and visible region. The second phase has a rate that is somewhat less dependent on O2 concentration than is the fastest phase rate and is detectable in all three spectral regions. The rate of the third phase is almost independent of the O2 concentration and is also detectable in all spectral regions. Analysis of the three phases gives their rates and absorption amplitudes. The fast phase reaches a rate of 2.5 X 10(4) s-1 at the highest O2 concentration available at 20 degrees C, whereas the phase of intermediate rate is limited at a value of 7 X 10(3) s-1 and the slow phase rate is limited at 700 s-1. The ratios of the kinetic difference spectra for the fast phase and the slow phase do not correspond to the spectra of the individual haem centres. A branched mechanism is advanced that is able to reconcile the kinetic and static difference spectra. This mechanism suggests that some of the cytochrome a is oxidized along with cytochrome a3 in the initial O2-sensitive phase. In addition, the model requires that CuA is oxidized heterogeneously. This fits with the complex time course of oxidation observed at 830 nm while retaining CuA as virtually the sole contributor to absorbance at this wavelength.

Snapshot of an oxygen intermediate in the catalytic reaction of cytochrome c 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.

Association of cytochrome c with membrane-bound cytochrome c oxidase proceeds parallel to the membrane rather than in bulk solution.

Project description:Electron transfer between the water-soluble cytochrome c and the integral membrane protein cytochrome c oxidase (COX) is the terminal reaction in the respiratory chain. The first step in this reaction is the diffusional association of cytochrome c toward COX, and it is still not completely clear whether cytochrome c diffuses in the bulk solution while encountering COX, or whether it prefers to diffuse laterally on the membrane surface. This is a rather crucial question, since in the latter case the association would be strongly dependent on the lipid composition and the presence of additional membrane proteins. We applied Brownian dynamics simulations to investigate the effect of an atomistically modeled dipalmitoyl phosphatidylcholine membrane on the association behavior of cytochrome c toward COX from Paracoccus denitrificans. We studied the negatively charged, physiological electron-transfer partner of COX, cytochrome c(552), and the positively charged horse-heart cytochrome c. As expected, both cytochrome c species prefer diffusion in bulk solution while associating toward COX embedded in a membrane, where the partial charges of the lipids were switched off, and the corresponding optimal association pathways largely overlap with the association toward fully solvated COX. Remarkably, after switching on the lipid partial charges, both cytochrome c species were strongly attracted by the inhomogeneous charge distribution caused by the zwitterionic lipid headgroups. This effect is particularly enhanced for horse-heart cytochrome c and is stronger at lower ionic strength. We therefore conclude that in the presence of a polar or even a charged membrane, cytochrome c diffuses laterally rather than in three dimensions.

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.

Photochemical and ligand-exchange properties of the cyanide complex of fully reduced cytochrome c oxidase.

Project description:Cytochrome oxidase, in its fully reduced state, forms a complex with CN having a Kd of 230 microM with a stoicheiometry of 1 CN molecule per cytochrome oxidase. We do not detect a second CN-binding site as seen by i.r. spectroscopy [Yoshikawa & Caughey (1990) J. Biol. Chem. 265, 7945-7958]. The ferrocytochrome a3-CN complex, like the analogous ferrocytochrome a3-CO complex, is photosensitive but with a 15-fold lower quantum yield for photolysis. Analysis of the recombination kinetics after CN photolysis establishes a simple bimolecular binding constant of 235 M-1.s-1, in agreement with the value obtained from stopped-flow studies [Antonini, Brunori, Greenwood, Malmström & Rotillo (1971) Eur. J. Biochem. 23, 396-400]. A rate of 0.07 s-1 for the first-order dissociation of CN from cytochrome a3 is found by the rate of exchange of CO with ferrocytochrome a3-CN, and is consistent with the value calculated from the equilibrium binding constant and the CN on rate. However, O2 is able to oxidize the fully reduced CN compound at a rate well in excess of the CN off rate. The product of this oxidation reaction is a partially reduced CN complex. This implies that O2 either promotes CN dissociation or is able to oxidize the CN-bound enzyme directly. These results are discussed in the context of the structure and dynamics of the ligand-binding site of cytochrome oxidase.

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.
