    Abstract:
    Kinetic studies of the reduction of Pseudomonas aeruginosa ferricytochrome c551 by Fe(EDTA)2- have been made. The reaction was found to follow a second-order rate law: k 4.2 x 10(3) M(-1) s(-1) [25 degrees, micro0.1 M, pH 7.0 (phosphate)]; deltaH+/+ 3.2 kcal/ mol; AS+/+ -30 cal/mol-deg. The electrostatics-corrected self-exchange rate constant (k11 corr) calculated for cytochrome c551 based on the Fe(EDTA)2- cross reaction is 2 M(-1) s(-1), as compared to a value of 6 M(-1) s(-1) for horse heart cytochrome c. The close correspondence of the two k11 corr values is taken as an indication that the two proteins employ very similar electron transfer mechanisms in their reactions with Fe(EDTA)(2-). It is proposed that this mechanism involves reagent contact, but little protein conformational change, at the partially exposed heme edge.
