We apologize for Proteopedia being slow to respond. For the past two years, a new implementation of Proteopedia has been being built. Soon, it will replace this 18-year old system. All existing content will be moved to the new system at a date that will be announced here.

[[http://www.uniprot.org/uniprot/CYC_HUMAN CYC_HUMAN]] Electron carrier protein. The oxidized form of the cytochrome c heme group can accept an electron from the heme group of the cytochrome c1 subunit of cytochrome reductase. Cytochrome c then transfers this electron to the cytochrome oxidase complex, the final protein carrier in the mitochondrial electron-transport chain. Plays a role in apoptosis. Suppression of the anti-apoptotic members or activation of the pro-apoptotic members of the Bcl-2 family leads to altered mitochondrial membrane permeability resulting in release of cytochrome c into the cytosol. Binding of cytochrome c to Apaf-1 triggers the activation of caspase-9, which then accelerates apoptosis by activating other caspases.

== Publication Abstract from PubMed ==
 +
The naturally occurring G41S mutation to human (Hs) cytochrome (cyt) c enhances apoptotic activity based upon previous in vitro and in vivo studies, but the molecular mechanism underlying this enhancement remains unknown. Here, X-ray crystallography, nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy, and density functional theory (DFT) calculations have been used to identify the structural and electronic differences between wild-type (WT) and G41S Hs cyt c. S41 is part of the hydrogen bonding network for propionate 7 of heme pyrrole ring A in the X-ray structure of G41S Hs cyt c and, compared to WT, G41S Hs cyt c has increased spin density on pyrrole ring C and a faster electron self-exchange rate. DFT calculations illustrate an electronic mechanism where structural changes near ring A can result in electronic changes at ring C. Since ring C is part of the solvent-exposed protein surface, we propose that this heme electronic structure change may ultimately be responsible for the enhanced proapoptotic activity of G41S Hs cyt c.
