The conformational states of oxidized and oxygenated beef-heart cytochrome c oxidase
Abstract:
1. The "oxygenated" form of cytochrome has been generated by treatment of the enzyme with ascorbic acid. 2. "Oxygenated oxidase" so generated is stable over long periods (24 h). 3. Sedimentation velocity experiments have shown the "oxygenated" oxidase to be a less compact molecule than the oxidized.
