Dynamic spectroelectrochemical measurement for the conformational transition of cytochrome c induced by bromopyrogal red

The conformational transition of horse heart cytochrome c induced by bromopyrogal red (BPR) in very low concentration has been firstly investigated by dynamic spectroelectrochemical technique, both at the BPR adsorbed platinum gauze electrode and at a bare platinum gauze electrode in a solution containing BPR. The effect of BPR on the structure of cytochrome c was studied by UV-visible and Fourier transform IR spectroscopy. The unfolded cytochrome c behaves simply as an electron transfer protein with a formal potential of −142 mV vs. a normal hydrogen electrode. The difference between the formal potentials of the native and unfolded cytochrome c is coupled to a difference in conformational energy of the two states of about 40 kJ mol⁻¹, which agrees well with the result reported. The stability and slow refolding of the unfolded cytochrome c are discussed.     

Redox reactions of cytochrome c facilitated by silver-imidazole complex

An imidazole modified silver electrode is prepared by immersing the substrate silver electrode in a 2% imidazole solution of ethanol at 50℃ for 10 min. The modified electrode is then swept in a cytochrome c solution and the modified layer takes off because the modified electrode is very unstable. Although the amount of the silver-imidazole complex is very small compared with the amount of cytochrome c in the protein solution, it greatly facilitates redox reactions involving the biomacromolecules.     

Reduction of cytochrome c at a lipid bilayer modified electrode

The reduction of horse heart cytochrome c has been investigated at a platinum electrode modified with a lipid bilayer membrane (BLM) which immobilized vinyl ferrocene as an electron mediator. The current—voltage curves show that the direct electrochemistry of cytochrome c at the metal electrode occurs quite efficiently. An adsorption equilibrium constant for cytochrome at the BLM surface, as well as an electron transfer rate constant between the protein and the modified electrode have been estimated from these results. The values of both parameters are much higher than those reported with other types of electrode modifications, indicating that a lipid bilayer-modified platinum electrode system using vinyl ferrocene as a mediator provides substantial improvements in electrochemical activity of cytochrome c at metal electrodes. The potential for modifying and utilizing this new class of “biomembrane-like” electrode surface for metalloprotein electrochemistry is briefly discussed.     

Direct electrochemistry of cytochrome C at nanocrystalline boron-doped diamond

Direct electron transfer of horse heart cytochrome c is measured at a nanocrystalline boron-doped diamond thin-film electrode. A quasi-reversible, diffusion-controlled cyclic voltammetric response is observed for untreated diamond. The peak currents change linearly with the concentration, and importantly, there is no electrode fouling. The results, observed for a hydrogen-terminated and uncharged surface, (i.e., no ionizable carbon-oxygen functional groups), raise interesting questions about the necessary surface interactions of cytochrome c for relatively rapid electrode kinetics.

CHLOROPHYLEPHOTOSENSITIZED ELECTRON TRANSFER BETWEEN CYTOCHROME c AND A LIPID-MODIFIED TRANSPARENT INDIUM OXIDE ELECTRODE

Both direct and chlorophyll-photosensitized electron transfer reactions between cytochrome c and a lipid-modified indium oxide electrode have been studied by cyclic voltammetry and photoelectrochemistry. The lipid films consisted of egg phosphatidylcholine (PC), either alone or in combination with the negatively charged surfactant dihexadecylphosphate (DHP-), and contained varying amounts of chlorophyll. The photocurrents were either ca-thodic, when cytochrome c was used in its oxidized form in the supporting electrolyte, or anodic when the reduced form of cytochrome c was present, with a magnitude that depended on the PC concentration and the applied voltage. Quantum efficiencies of the anodic and cathodic photocurrents reached their maxima (5% and 10/o, respectively), at an intermediate PC concentration (5 mg/mL in the membrane-forming solution), conditions under which the diffusion-controlled electrochemical response of cytochrome c was also maximal. Incorporation of DHP^- into the PC film increased both the direct and chlorophyll-photosensitized currents, presumably due to electrostatic binding of the positively charged cytochrome c to the electrode surface.     

Direct electrochemical behavior of cytochrome c on DNA-modified glassy carbon electrode and its application to cytochrome c biosensor.

DNA was immobilized on glassy carbon electrodes to fabricate DNA-modified electrodes. The direct electron transfer of horse heart cytochrome c on DNA-modified glassy carbon electrode was achieved. A pair of well-defined redox peaks of cytochrome c appeared at Epc = -0.017 V and Epa = 0.009 V (vs. Ag/AgCl) in 10 mM phosphate buffer solution (pH 7.0) at a scan rate of 50 mV/s. The electron transfer coefficient (alpha) and the standard rate constant of the surface reaction (Ks) of cytochrome c on DNA-modified electrodes could be estimated to be 0.87 and 34.52 s(-1), respectively. The DNA-modified glassy carbon electrode could be applied to detect cytochrome c by means of differential pulse voltammetry (DPV). The cathodic peak current was proportional to the quantity of cytochrome c in the range of 4.0 x 10(-6) M to 1.2 x 10(-5) M. The correlation coefficient is 0.996, and with the detection limit was 1.0 x 10(-6) M (three times the ratio of signal to noise, S/N = 3).     

Conductive wiring of immobilized photosynthetic reaction center to electrode by cytochrome C

The photosynthetic reaction center (RC) found in photosynthetic bacteria is one of the most advanced photoelectronic devices developed by nature. However, after immobilization on the electrode surface, the efficiency of electron transfer (ET) between the RC and the electrode is relatively low. This inefficiency has limited the possibility of using the RC for technological applications. Here we show that photoinduced electron transfer between the immobilized RC and a gold electrode can be increased by several tens-fold by incorporation of cytochrome c into the RC-self-assembled monolayer (SAM)-electrode complex. The effect does not depend on the initial redox state of the cytochrome and seems to be the result of the formation of a complex between the RC and the cytochrome c serving as an ET wire. This observation opens the possibility for electrochemical analysis of the special pair in the RC protein that is deeply buried inside the protein globe and is barely electrically addressable from the electrode surface.

Liquid chromatography-electrochemical detection of ferro- and ferricytochrome c at a chemically modified gold electrode

Chemically modified electrodes, constructed by adsorption of 4,4'-dithiodipyridine onto a polyvinylferrocene-treated gold surface, were employed for the amperometric detection of cytochrome c following size-exclusion chromatography. The electrode response was nearly reversible, permitting quantitation both of the ferro-form of the protein at +0.15 V vs. Ag/AgCl and of the ferri-form at -0.15 V. The limit of detection for the reduced species was 3 pmol injected, and the response was linear over three orders of magnitude. Using the chemically modified electrode approach, cytochrome c monitoring was sufficiently selective that the compound could be determined in human plasma pretreated only by dilution and particulate filtration.     

Surface modifiers for the promotion of direct electrochemistry of cytochrome c

Fifty-four bifunctional organic compounds were studied to assess their ability to promote the direct electrochemistry of horse heart cytochrome c at a modified gold electrode. From the results of the survey it was possible to identify those features important for successful promotion of the electrochemical activity. It is suggested that it is necessary to provide groups on the electrode surface which can hydrogen bond or form salt bridges to the positively charged lysine side chain groups around the heme crevice on cytochrome c. The functional groups, Y, may be anionic or weakly basic and can be attached to the electrode using a bifunctional compound X ～ Y. The group, X, adsorbs or binds to the gold surface through nitrogen, phosphorus, or sulphur. A “pre-activation” step for the adsorption of some surface modifiers has been discovered. The molecular structure of a compound which promotes cytochrome c electrochemistry can be either conformationally rigid or flexible, aromatic or aliphatic, but it should direct Y out from the electrode. The length of the molecule does not appear to affect the rate of electron transfer. The presence of a hydrophobic zone in the structure is neither necessary nor sufficient for successful promotion of cytochrome c electrochemistry.
