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. Publication Abstract from PubMed Supramolecular receptors such as water-soluble calixarenes are in development as 'molecular glues' for protein assembly. Here, we obtained cocrystals of sulfonato-calix[6]arene (sclx6 ) and yeast cytochrome c (cytc) in the presence of imidazole. A crystal structure at 2.65 A resolution reveals major structural rearrangement and disorder in imidazole-bound cytc. The largest protein-calixarene interface involves 440 A(2) of the protein surface with key contacts at Arg13, Lys73, and Lys79. These lysines participate in alkaline transitions of cytc and are part of Omega-loop D, which is substantially restructured in the complex with sclx6 . The structural modification also includes Omega-loop C, which is disordered (residues 41-55 inclusive). These results suggest the possibility of using supramolecular scaffolds to trap partially disordered proteins.
