The oxidation-reduction
potentials
of respiratory
components can reveal the magnitude of energy liberation
accompanying electron transfer, the most likely sequential reaction
order of the components, the existence of multiple components
having indistinguishable
optical properties,
the number of
electrons transferred, and the possible existence of energized
members arising during the electron transfer process. Because
of the importance
of obtaining accurate oxidation-reduction
potential data for respiratory components we have devoted a
considerable effort to improving the reliability of the collection
of such information.
We have found that many of the assumptions used in the past to obtain oxidation-reduction
potentials
are unjustified
and that some of the techniques are prone to
yielding unreliable
information.
This paper presents a new
approach to the electrochemistry
and data analysis for oxidation-reduction
potentials and presents results for the electron transport chain of Escherichia
cd.
EXPERIMENTAL

used in this work were: potassium
ferricyanide,
Merck and Co., Rahway, N. J. (I?,,, = 435 mV); quinhydrone, Fisher Scientific Co., Fair Lawn, N. J. (E,,, = 280 mV); 1,2naphthoquinone

sium ferricyanide
and 6 !nM for each of the other five. E. coli
membranes
(T-fraction)
were prepared
as previously
described
(1).
Protein
concentration
was determined
by the Lowry
procedure
with
bovine serum albumin as standard (2). Mediators f E. coli cell
membranes
were placed in 125 mM KCl, 62.5 mM potassium
phosphate
at pH 7.0 for analysis.
Equipment
and Procedures-The
equipment
and procedures
have
been previously
described
(3-5). Analog signals for electrode
voltages
and optical density were passed through
20.Hz low pass active Butterworth
filters
(Frequency
Devices,
Inc., Haverhill,
Mass.) before
amplification
to remove unwanted
components,
particularly
at 60 Hz.
Additional
details relevant
to the current
studies are as follows. Prior
to the experimental
titration,
the system was cycled through
a preliminary phase of air oxidation
followed
by endogenous
substrate
reduction. Although
equilibration
can be obtained from either direction
(4),
the system returns to equilibrium
much more rapidly after a reductive
pulse than an oxidative
pulse. Therefore,
all titrations
were performed
by fist raising the voltage of the suspension
to the highest value and
then proceeding
to a stepwise reduction.
Optical transmittances
across
a spectrum
of wavelengths
were measured
and conversion
to absorbantes was performed
outside of the spectrophotometer.
In this way,
a series of spectra as a function
of voltage was obtained.
The average
titration
rate was -30 mV/h
and the average
evaporation
rate was
0.03 ml (1% of total volume)/h.
The time to titrate
90% of a single
component
was 4 h divided by the number
of electrons
transferred.
The pH of the titration
mixture
was 7.0 at the start and finish of all
titrations
where the highest voltage obtained
did not exceed 300 mV
(i.e. for cytochrome
bl). When the voltage
was raised through
the
range of cytochrome
d, however,
an acidification
of the medium
occurred.
The pH of the medium
did not change further
through
the
reductive
titration.
The average pH during the titration
of cytochrome
d was about 6.3. Current
studies to be reported
separately
indicate
that the process of acidification
of the external
medium
is related to
the oxidative
titration
of cytochrome
d.
Resolution
of Spectra versus Voltage Data into Individual
Oxidation-Reduction
Components-In
a previous
advancement
in the
treatment
of spectral data, Butler
and Hopkins
(6, 7), and Shipp (8)
used fourth
differences
to sharpen
and separate
clusters
of peaks.
Shipp was thus able to observe several individual
peaks in clusters
that had looked like one peak. Our aim, in contrast,
was the detection
of transitions
with respect to voltage, which was done more simply by
following
the height of the composite
peaks. Since each experiment
involves
many complete
spectra,
any simplification
is desirable.
It
should be noted that a transition
may be hidden by simultaneous
growth
and shrinkage
of two peaks in a cluster. Still, no method
is
without
some shortcoming,
as emphasized
by Butler and Hopkins
in
their discussion
of the fourth difference
method.
In order to isolate spectral changes due to the change of oxidationreduction
state of an oxidation-reduction
component
from those due
to changes of background
shape in our work, either of two analytic
techniques
were used. When a peak was isolated in the sense that the
second derivative
of the peak was of much greater
magnitude
than
those in the nearby
background,
the second derivative
at the wavelength of maximum
absorbance
was determined
by a least squares
procedure.
A parabola
was fit through
seven points composed
of the
peak wavelength
and three evenly spaced points on each side close to

The oxidation-reduction
potentials
of Escherichia
coli
cytochromes
have been studied by a recently
described
technique
for automated
electrodic
potentiometry
(Hendler,

Hendler,

where entire spectra are recorded
at a
series of solution
potentials.
New techniques
for resolution
of the spectra
uersus voltage
data have been
applied. The results indicate
that a l-electron
transport
chain conducts
electrons
from substrate
to cytochrome
d, which is the cytochrome
oxidase. Cytochrome
d contains several
components
which
appear
to increase
electron
transfer
first to a a-electron
stage and then to
a 4-electron
stage for the final reduction
of a molecule
of oxygen to 2 molecules

From principles
described
in Chapter

for this approach
using a central point

In our three-point
method,
n = 1 was used.
When a peak was not isolated
but was overlapped
by peaks of
similar widths,
the spectrum
was resolved
into individual
Gaussian
components
and a flat base level. It is assumed that peaks may grow
or shrink but may not change midpoint
or half-width.
A good choice
of peaks is one with the fewest number
of Gaussians
and in which the
synthesized
curve fits the experimental
curve throughout
the whole
voltage titration
range.
Once the data have been resolved
into values for the second
derivative
or height of a Gaussian component
as a function
of voltage,
a second procedure
of numeric
analysis involving
computer
fitting, is
employed.
In this stage, the number
of components
obeying
the
Nernst law is determined
as well as their relative
amounts
and the
number
of electrons
transferred
by each (3-5).

in

For the E. coli membranes,
air was the oxidant

In the panel showing E. coli membranes,
the bottom line shows the spectrum
for the polypropylene

optical reference.
Phenazine
methosulfate
was used at two concentrations, 0.1 miw (0, and R,) and 0.04 mrvr (02 and RJ. Potassium
ferricyanide
was present at 0.2 mrvr, quinhydrone
at 0.6 mrvr, and the
other three mediators
at 0.1 mrvr each. The E. coli membranes
were
present at a concentration
of 6.2 mg of protein/ml.
The buffer was
0.125 M KC1 and 0.063 M potassium
phosphate
at pH 7.0. The optical

was water for mediators
alone and was polypropylene

To convert

the absorbances
shown in the lower right-hand

was the reference

the short dashed line spectrum
for the surface in Fig. 6, and the long

b,(a) (4, 5), electrodic titrations revealed the same components, although the relative percent of
each was different in the two preparations
(Table I). Because
of the changing nature of the general absorbance-light-scattering background as voltage is changed (shown in Fig. 5), the
apparent
absorbance
of 1.76 at 320 nm and 0.67 at 695 nm. The b
panels show the surface viewed from the high-wavelength,
low-voltage
corner of the surface. The c panels view the surface from a position
of high wavelength
and high voltage.
The d panels present
the
opposite
face from that in the a panels, viewed from a position
of
relatively
high voltage.
The irregular
or jagged nature
of a surface
seen at high absorbance
values reflects the limitation
of the 12-bit A/
D converter
which admits
4096 possible

values.
A
variation
in signal of 0.1% or 4 units represents
an uncertainty
of less
than 0.004 A in the absorbance
range of 0 to 1.0, of 0.043 A at 2.0 A
and greater than 0.3 A at 3.0 A. For this reason, quantitative
analysis
of spectral surfaces is done with data collected in the lower absorbance
ranges. Concentrations
for the mediators

apparent difference for the lowest E, component seen in the

to the superiority of succinate as a mediator for this component. Because of this and because pyocyanine

appreciable

root mean square error was essentially equal for a fit with n

including a minor 2-electron transfer component with an E,
value about 20 mV lower than the main 4-electron transfer

responded in a very complicated

a coordination
of several molecules of cytochrome oxidase can
be accomplished,
the possibility that 2 molecules of oxygen
can be reduced at one time cannot be completely eliminated.
Whether all of the major components revealed in this work
participate
in an electron transport chain passing electrons
from a substrate to oxygen has not been established nor has
the actual biological
sequence of their operation.
In subsequent work using a rapid scanning spectrometer
plus natural
biological electron donor substrates these questions will be
studied in mitochondrial
systems as well as in E. coli.
