A decahaem cytochrome as an electron conduit in protein–enzyme redox processes. Issue 46 (19th May 2016) - Lee, Chong-Yong
Abstract : The decahaem cytochrome MtrC from Shewanella oneidensis MR-1 was employed as a protein diode between an indium tin oxide electrode and fumarate reductase or hydrogenase. Abstract : The decahaem cytochrome MtrC from Shewanella oneidensis MR-1 was employed as a protein electron conduit between a porous indium tin oxide electrode and redox enzymes. Using a hydrogenase and a fumarate reductase, MtrC was shown as a suitable and efficient diode to shuttle electrons to and from the electrode with the MtrC redox activity regulating the direction of the enzymatic reactions.
