  2. 1. Genes for cytochrome c and cytochrome c oxidase synthesis in Bacillus subtilis

    Author : Jenny Bengtsson; Biologiska institutionen; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Microbiology; cytochrome; cytochrome c oxidase; Bacillus subtilis; cytochrome c synthesis; bacteriology; virology; mycology; Mikrobiologi; bakteriologi; virologi; mykologi;

    Abstract : Cytochromes are heme-containing proteins that function in electron transfer reactions, e.g. respiration and photosynthesis. There are several different types of cytochromes. READ MORE

  4. 2. Modulators of Saccharomyces cerevisiae cytochrome c oxidase : Implications for the regulation of mitochondrial respiration

    Author : Camilla Rydström Lundin; Peter Brzezinski; Christoph von Ballmoos; Shelagh Ferguson-Miller; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; cytochrome c oxidase; cytochrome c; OXPHOS; membrane protein; kinetics; ligand-binding; electron transfer; Rcf1; respiratory supercomplexes; Saccharomyces cerevisiae; Biochemistry; biokemi;

    Abstract : Oxidative phosphorylation in mitochondria is performed by enzyme complexes and electron carriers that reside in the inner membrane. It is now generally accepted that these respiratory enzyme complexes assemble into larger so-called supercomplexes. However, it is presently not known why, under which conditions or how these supercomplexes form. READ MORE

  5. 3. Genetically determined interindividual variation in cytochrome P450 dependent drug metabolism : molecular basis and clinical implications

    Author : Sarah C Sim; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Pharmacogenetics is the study of genetic variation that causes variation in drug levels (pharmacokinetics), drug response (pharmacodynamics) and adverse drug reactions. Pharmacogenetics aims at identifying biomarkers that allows a personalized drug treatment and thereby increased drug efficacy and reduced occurrence of adverse drug reactions. READ MORE

  6. 4. Cytochrome c biogenesis in Bacillus subtilis. Identification and analysis of ccdA

    Author : Torbjörn Schiött; Biologiska institutionen; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; spore synthesis; haem C; cytochrome c synthesis; Bacillus subtilis; ccdA; Microbiology; bacteriology; virology; mycology; Mikrobiologi; bakteriologi; virologi; mykologi;

    Abstract : Cytochromes function in electron transfer reactions, e.g. in respiratory systems, and contain haem as a prosthetic group. Cytochromes of the c-type differ from other cytochromes in that haem is covalently attached, via thioether linkages, to two cysteine residues in a conserved sequence motif in the protein, Cys-Xaa-Yaa-Cys-His.

  7. 5. Structural elements involved in protein-mediated proton transfer : Implications from studies of cytochrome c oxidase

    Author : Ann-Louise Johansson; Martin Högbom; Peter Brzezinski; Bertrand García-Moreno; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; cytochrome c oxidase; proton transfer; Biochemistry; biokemi;

    Abstract : Proton transfer is one of the most common reactions in biological systems. During energy conversion inside a cell, proton transfer is crucial to maintain an electrochemical proton gradient across the cell membrane. This gradient is in turn used to e.g. READ MORE
