Abstract
|
 |
|
Tuna ferrocytochrome c and ferricytochrome c have been refined independently at
high resolution (1.5 A and 1.8 A) to crystallographic residual errors of 17.3%
and 20.8%, respectively. Small but significant conformational differences are
seen surrounding a buried water molecule that is hydrogen bonded to Asn-52,
Tyr-67, and Thr-78. In the oxidized state, this water molecule is 1.0 A closer
to the heme and the heme has moved 0.15 A out of its heme crevice; both changes
lead to a more polar microenvironment for the heme. Chemical modification
studies, patterns of evolutionary conservatism, structural differences in
bacterial cytochromes, and x-ray studies all agree that the "active
site" for cytochrome c is bounded by lysines 8, 13,27, 72, 79, 86, and 87
(thus containing the evolutionary conservative 72-87 loop) and has the buried
water molecule just below its surface and the opening of the heme crevice
slightly to one side.
