Journal ArticleDOI
Separation of mammalian cytochrome c oxidase into 13 polypeptides by a sodium dodecyl sulfate-gel electrophoretic procedure.
TL;DR: From the correlation of the gel bands with 12 isolated polypeptides from which the complete amino acid sequence is known, it is concluded that mammalian cytochrome c oxidase consists of 13 different polypeptin which can all be separated by the described procedure.
Journal ArticleDOI
On the function of multiple subunits of cytochrome c oxidase from higher eukaryotes.
Bernhard Kadenbach,Peter Merle +1 more
TL;DR: It is established that cytochrome c oxidase pumps protons in addition to the formation of a membrane potential and concomitan{ alkalinisation of the matrix side, due to the transfer of electrons from cy tochrome c to oxygen.
Journal ArticleDOI
The Subunit Composition of Mammalian Cytochrome c Oxidase
Peter Merle,Bernhard Kadenbach +1 more
TL;DR: The difference between these results and all other published data on the subunit composition of mammalian-type cytochrome c oxidase, based on gel electrophoretic analysis, is due to the insufficient resolving power of previously used gel systems and the very similar molecular weight of subunits VIa,b, c, and VIIa, b, c.
Journal ArticleDOI
Kinetic and structural differences between cytochrome c oxidases from beef liver and heart.
Peter Merle,Bernhard Kadenbach +1 more
TL;DR: The functional meaning of cytochrome c oxidase isoenzymes in liver and heart is discussed and a high performance sodium dodecylsulfate gel electrophoretic system is applied.
Journal ArticleDOI
Immunological and chemical characterization of rat liver cytochrome c oxidase
TL;DR: Rat liver cytochrome c oxidase was separated by sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis into 12 different polypeptide chains to characterize the enzyme complex and subunit VIII is thought to be located within the complex, since a specific antiserum does not precipitate the complex.
