Application
Cytochrome c polymerization occurs by successive domain swapping, which may be a common mechanism of protein polymerization. Cytochrome c has been used in a study to establish that an optimized pulsed-Q dissociation and collision-activated dissociation hybrid workflow may have wide applications in biological and biomedical research.
Biochem/physiol Actions
Cytochrome c has been identified as an important mediator in apoptotic pathways. The release of mitochondrial cytochrome c into the cytoplasm stimulates apoptosis and is commonly used as an indicator of the apoptotic process in the cell.
Cytochrome c is primarily known as an electron-carrying mitochondrial protein. The transition of cytochrome c between the ferrous and ferric states within the cell makes it an efficient biological electron-transporter and it plays a vital role in cellular oxidations in both plants and animals. It is generally regarded as a universal catalyst of respiration, forming an essential electron-bridge between the respirable substrates and oxygen
