Hydrogen-tritium exchange titration of the histidine residues in bovine heart cytochrome c and analysis of their microenvironment.

Microenvironments of the three histidine residues located at the positions 18, 26, and 33 from the amino terminus in bovine heart cytochrome c were analysed in solution by the hydrogen-tritium exchange titration method, which has been developed in this laboratory. Histidine-18, which is liganded to the heme iron, and histidine-26 did not incorporate tritium in native state, indicating that the two are located in solvent inaccessible hydrophobic regions. Histidine-33 was labeled with tritium to an appreciable extent and seemed to be partially buried in the molecule. The pKa value estimated for histidine-33 was 6.1 at 37 degrees by the tritium exchange titration, suggesting that the residue interacts very weakly with a neighboring cationic group. These results seem to be compatible with the tertiary structure of the protein deduced from the X-ray crystallographic analysis.
