摘要: Abstract 1. The kinetics of the system: ascorbate-cytochrome c-cytochrome oxidase-oxygen, have been studied, using Keilin and Hartree horse heart-muscle preparation. 2. In disagreement with general belief, exogenous cytochrome c is not “nearly completely” reduced under conditions these measurements. 3. reduction ferricytochrome by ascorbate first order respect both to ascorbate. 4. No explanation for observed could be found on basis that only function reduce c, oxidation latter following same as in absence 5. could, however, explained if reduces but enters enzymic reaction a second substrate. significance this possible path discussed. 6. effects temperature inhibition azide studied.
