TAILIEUCHUNG - Báo cáo khoa học: Order within a mosaic distribution of mitochondrial c-type cytochrome biogenesis systems?

Mitochondrial cytochromescandc1 are present in all eukaryotes that use oxygen as the terminal electron acceptor in the respiratory chain. Matura-tion of c-type cytochromes requires covalent attachment of the heme cofac-tor to the protein, and there are at least five distinct biogenesis systems that catalyze this post-translational modification in different organisms and organelles. | IFEBS Journal REVIEW ARTICLE Order within a mosaic distribution of mitochondrial c-type cytochrome biogenesis systems James W.

Maturation of c-type cytochromes requires covalent attachment of the heme cofactor to the protein and there are at least five distinct biogenesis systems that catalyze this post-translational modification in different organisms and organelles. In this study we use biochemical data comparative genomic and structural bioinformatics investigations to provide a holistic view of mitochondrial c-type cytochrome biogenesis and its evolution. There are three pathways for mitochondrial c-type cytochrome maturation only one of which is present in prokaryotes. We analyze the evolutionary distribution of these biogenesis systems which include the Ccm system System I and the enzyme heme lyase System III . We conclude that heme lyase evolved once and in many lineages replaced the multicomponent Ccm system .
