Activating Compound

Activating Compound Comment Organism Structure
cardiolipin cardiolipin liposomes induce nitrite reductase activity of Fe(II)-cytc. The values observed can be compared with the kinetics of the NO2-mediated conversion of other ferrous heme-proteins. Cardiolipins facilitate the NO2-mediated nitrosylation of cytc-Fe(II) in a dose-dependent manner inducing the penta-coordination of the heme-Fe(II) atom Equus caballus

General Information

General Information Comment Organism
physiological function the NO2--mediated conversion of cardiolipin-cytc-Fe(II) to cardiolipin-cytc-Fe(II)-NO may play anti-apoptotic effects impairing lipid peroxidation and therefore the initiation of the cell death program by the release of pro-apoptotic factors in the cytoplasm Equus caballus
