Abstract:Cytochrome c 3 , which has four bis-histidinyl coordinated hemes per molecule, is a redox protein, and stores electrons temporarily until recognizing a redox partner. This mechanism is called "electron pool effect". In this study, highly sensitive EQCM measurement clarified which heme in cytochrome c 3 caused the electron pool effect. To investigate the key heme to the electron pool effect, cytochrome c 3 mutants in which the sixth axial ligand of one heme was changed were prepared, and the intermolecular elec… Show more
