Summary.The plant plasma membrane (PM) contains more than one b-type cytochrome. One of these proteins has a rather high redox potential (can be fully reduced by ascorbate) and is capable of transporting electrons through the PM. Four genes encoding proteins with considerable homology to the sequences of cytochrome b561 proteins in the animal chromaffin granule membrane have recently been identified...
The possible involvement of a high-potential b-type cytochrome in plasma membrane electron transport was tested using ascorbate-loaded membrane vesicles. Absorption spectra demonstrated that the cytochrome was about 89% reduced in these preparations. Use of ascorbate oxidase and washing of the vesicles further indicated flat reduction was mediated by intra-vesicular ascorbate. Addition of low concentrations...
