J.Biol.Chem., 283:17542-17549, 2008 Cited by PubMed Abstract: In cellular respiration, cytochrome c transfers electrons from cytochrome bc(1) complex (complex III) to cytochrome c oxidase by transiently binding to the membrane proteins. Here, we report the structure of isoform-1 cytochrome c bound to cytochrome bc(1) complex at 1.9 A resolution in reduced state. The dimer structure is asymmetric. Monovalent cytochrome c binding is correlated with conformational changes of the Rieske head domain and subunit QCR6p and with a higher number of interfacial water molecules bound to cytochrome c(1). Pronounced hydration and a "mobility mismatch" at the interface with disordered charged residues on the cytochrome c side are favorable for transient binding. Within the hydrophobic interface, a minimal core was identified by comparison with the novel structure of the complex with bound isoform-2 cytochrome c. Four core interactions encircle the heme cofactors surrounded by variable interactions. The core interface may be a feature to gain specificity for formation of the reactive complex.
