title: Spectral properties of nitric oxide complex of cytochrome c' from Rhodopseudomonas capsulata B100.
abstract: The spectral properties for NO complexes of ferric and ferrous cytochrome c' from photosynthetic bacterium Rhodopseudomonas capsulata B100 are reported. The electronic absorption, MCD, and EPR spectra have been compared with those of the NO complexes of the other cytochromes c' and horse heart cytochrome c. The NO-ferrous cytochrome c' would be a mixture of NO complexes with six- and five-coordinate nitrosylheme, suggesting that the heme-iron to histidine bond in the ferrous cytochrome c' is more stable than that from chemoheterotrophic bacteria. The reaction product of ferric cytochrome c' with NO exhibited the spectra similar to NO-ferric derivatives of the other hemoproteins, which indicates the formation of NO-ferric cytochrome c'.
