This process maintains an electrochemical proton gradient across the membrane hosting the oxidase. CcO is a well-established model enzyme in bioenergetics to study the proton-coupled electron transfer reactions and protonation dynamics involved in these processes. Its catalytic mechanism is subject to ongoing intense research. Previous research, however, was mainly focused on the turnover of oxygen and electrons in CcO, while studies reporting proton turnover rates of CcO, that is the rate of proton uptake by the enzyme, are scarce. Here, we reconstitute CcO from R. sphaeroides into liposomes containing a pH sensitive dye and probe changes of the pH value inside single proteoliposomes using fluorescence microscopy. CcO proton turnover rates are quantified at the single-enzyme level. In addition, we recorded the distribution of the number of functionally reconstituted CcOs across the proteoliposome population. Studies are performed using proteoliposomes made of native lipid sources, such as a crude extract of soybean lipids and the polar lipid extract of E. coli, as well as purified lipid fractions, such as phosphatidylcholine extracted from soybean lipids. It is shown that these lipid compositions have only minor effects on the CcO proton turnover rate, but can have a strong impact on the reconstitution efficiency of functionally active CcOs. In particular, our experiments indicate that efficient functional reconstitution of CcO is strongly promoted by the addition of anionic lipids like phosphatidylglycerol and cardiolipin.","17 Seiten","https://refubium.fu-berlin.de/handle/fub188/28979||http://dx.doi.org/10.17169/refubium-28729","eng","https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/","500 Naturwissenschaften und Mathematik::540 Chemie::540 Chemie und zugeordnete Wissenschaften||500 Naturwissenschaften und Mathematik::540 Chemie::541 Physikalische Chemie","proton translocation||single molecule||proton pump||electron transfer||membrane protein||single enzyme fluorescence microscopy","Lipid Composition Affects the Efficiency in the Functional Reconstitution of the Cytochrome c Oxidase","Wissenschaftlicher Artikel","open access","6981","10.3390/ijms21196981","International Journal of Molecular Sciences","19","MDPI","https://doi.org/10.3390/ijms21196981","21","1422-0067","Biologie, Chemie, Pharmazie","Institut für Chemie und Biochemie / Organische Chemie:::f5491855-90c6-435c-9089-c162438030f9:::600","Die Publikation wurde aus Open Access Publikationsgeldern der Freien Universität Berlin gefördert.","no"
