Description générale
Research area: Apoptosis
Cytochrome c (Cyt C) is an essential mitochondrial protein located in the inner membrane of the mitochondria. It is encoded in the nucleus as apo-cytochrome C. Cyt C occurs as membrane-bound or as soluble metalloproteins in energy-transducing membranes and is found in bacteria, archaea, and plastids. It belongs to the group of class IIa cytochromes and contains pentacoordinate heme centres.

Application
Cytochrome C from bovine heart has been used:
- as a component of the assay solution for testing the activity of respiratory chain complexes III and IV in the mitochondria of human osteosarcoma and human hepatocarcinoma cell lines
- to determine the cytochrome c oxidase activity in mitochondria of human aortic endothelial cells
- as a component of the cyt C oxidase reaction solution during in situ enzyme staining of cyt C oxidase in mice kidney tissues
Actions biochimiques/physiologiques
L′interconversion rapide du cytochrome c entre les états ferreux et ferrique en font un transporteur d′électrons biologique efficace. Il joue un rôle essentiel dans les oxydations tant chez les plantes que chez les animaux. Il est généralement considéré comme un maillon essentiel de la chaîne respiratoire, car il forme un pont d′électrons essentiel entre les substrats respirables et l′oxygène.
Cytochrome C (Cyt C) is involved in the activation of caspase during the caspase-dependent apoptosis intrinsic pathway that triggers programmed cell death through apoptosis. It shows lipid-binding activity through its interaction with cardiolipin that accounts for the peroxidase activity of Cyt C. Cyt C binds to heme via the help of cytochrome c heme lyase that enables its release into the mitochondrial intermembrane space.
Notes préparatoires
Prepared with acetic acid without using TCA.
