Interaction of Carbon Monoxide with the Apoptosis-Inducing Cytochrome c−Cardiolipin Complex

Abstract: The interaction of mitochondrial cytochrome (cyt) c with cardiolipin (CL) is involved in the initial stages of apoptosis. This interaction can lead to destabilization of the heme-Met80 bond and peroxidase activity [Basova, L. V., et al. (2007) Biochemistry 46, 3423-3434]. We show that under these conditions carbon monoxide (CO) binds to cyt c, with very high affinity ( approximately 5 x 10(7) M(-1)), in contrast to the native cyt c protein involved in respiratory electron shuttling that does not bind CO. Bindi… Show more

“…CL binding to hhcytc induces a drastically reduced midpoint potential, which falls out of the range required for its physiological role in mitochondrial respiration (17). Further, the cleavage of the distal Fe-Met80 bond endows hhcytc with proapoptotic activity, due to the achievement of peroxidase action (15, 23-26, 31, 32), and antiapoptotic functions, increasing the affinity for CO and NO (27,28) and inducing peroxynitrite detoxification properties (29).…”

“…Antiapoptotic Activity of CL-bound Horse Heart Cytochrome c CL binding to hhcytc facilitates CO and NO binding to the heme-Fe-atom and peroxynitrite isomerization (27)(28)(29). While native ferrous hhcytc (hhcytc-Fe(II)) is unable to bind CO (35), ferrous CL-hhcytc (CL-hhcytc-Fe(II)), like mammalian myoglobins (Mbs) (36), interacts with CO by a simple second-order process (27).…”
