Abstract excerpt
To understand the determinants of redox potential and protein stability in c-type cytochromes, we have characterized two mutations to a highly conserved tyrosine group, tyrosine-75, of Rhodobacter capsulatus cytochrome c2. Mutant Y75F was designed to test the importance of the tyrosine hydroxyl group to the typically high redox potentials of the cytochromes c2 while maintaining a hydrophobic core. Mutant Y75C was...
