| Abstract | A c3 type cytochrome has been purified from the thermophilic, non-spore-forming, sulfate-reducing bacterium Thermodesulfobacterium commune. The purified protein was homogeneous as judged by sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, gel filtration, and isoelectric focusing. A pI of 6.83 was observed. The molecular weight of the cytochrome was estimated to be ca. 13,000 from both gel filtration and sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. The hemoprotein exhibited absorption maxima at 530, 408.5, and 351 nm in the oxidized form and 551.5 (alpha band), 522.5 (beta band), and 418.5 nm (gamma band) in the reduced form. The extinction coefficients of T. commune cytochrome c3 were 130,000, 74,120, and 975,000 M-1 cm-1 at 551.5, 522.5, and 418.5 nm, respectively. It contains four hemes per molecule, on the basis of both the iron estimation and the extinction coefficient value of its pyridine hemochrome. The amino acid composition showed the presence of eight cysteine residues involved in heme binding. T. commune cytochrome c3 had low threonine, serine, and glycine contents and high glutamic acid and hydrophobic residue contents. The electrochemical study of T. commune cytochrome c3 by cyclic voltammetry and differential pulse polarography has shown that the cytochrome system behaves like a reversible system. Four redox potential values at Eh1 = -0.140 +/- 0.010 V, Eh2 = Eh3 = Eh4 = -0.280 +/- 0.010 V have been determined. T. commune cytochrome c3, which acts as the physiological electron carrier of hydrogenase, is similar in most respects to the multiheme low-potential cytochrome c3 which is characteristic of the genus Desulfovibrio. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
