Cytochrome c1 forms an active complex with cytochrome c as previously reported (Chiang, Y. L., Kaminsky, L. S., and King, T. E. (1976) J. Biol. Chem. 251, 29-36). It also forms a complex with cytochrome oxidase with heme ratio of 1:1. This cytochrome c1.oxidase complex has been purified by ammonium sulfate fractionation and is stable in media of high ionic strength (greater than 0.1 M) but dissociates as the pH deviates from neutral. The purified cytochrome c1 aggregates to an oligomer, presumably a pentamer. No agent has been found to depolymerize isolated c1 without denaturation. However, in the cytochrome c1.oxidase complex, these two cytochromes apparently were depolymerized to form smaller aggregates, if not monomeric units, as judged by sedimentation behavior. Cytochrome c1 also forms a ternary complex with cytochrome c and oxidase in the heme ratio of 1:1:1. This complex can be prepared by any of the following four methods: (i) c1 + c + oxidase: (ii) c1.c complex + oxidase; (iii) c1 + c.oxidase complex: or (iv) c + c1.oxidase complex. The mode of formation of these complexes is all from pure protein-protein interactions. Cytochrome c1 is also incorporated into phospholipid vesicles and these vesicles show about 200 molecules of phospholipid/cytochrome c1 in terms of heme. The spectrophotometric, circular dichroic, sedimentation behavior and enzymic properties of these complexes have been investigated.
