Revised Manuscript Received December 6, 1989 abstract: Resonance Raman (RR) spectra are reported for reduced submitochondrial particles (SMP) with excitationat 441.6 nm, where Raman bands of the cytochrome c oxidase heme a groups are selectively enhanced. Addition of ATP to energize the membranes induces the formation of a new band at 1644 cm'1 and partial loss of intensity in a band at 1567 cm'1. These changes are modeled by adding cyanide to reduced cytochrome c oxidase and are attributed to partial conversion of cytochrome (cyt)< z3 from a high-spin to a low-spin state. This conversion is abolished by addition of excess oligomycin, an ATPase inhibitor, or FCCP, an uncoupler of proton translocation, and is reversed when the ATP is consumed. The observed spin-state conversion is attributed tothe binding of an endogenous ligand to the cyt a3 Fe atom. This ligation is suggested to be induced by a local increase in pH and/or by a global conformation changeassociated with the generation of a transmembrane potential. Since 02 binding requires a vacant coordination site at cyt a3, the ligation of this site must retard 02 reduction and could thus provide a simple mechanism for energy-linked regulation of respiration. No changes in the RR spectrum were observed upon adding Ca2+ or H+ to reduced cytochrome c oxidase. The cyt a3 spin-state change associated with membraneenergization is unrelated to the cyt a absorption red shift induced by adding Ca2+ or H+ to cytochrome c oxidase.(cytochrome c oxidase (cyt ox.) is one of nature’s primary energy transducers (Wikstrom et al., 1981). This multisubunit protein traverses the inner mitochondrial membrane, accepting four electrons from the cytosolic protein cytochrome (cyt) c and transferring them to the matrix side of the membrane, where they are used to reduce 02 to water. The 02 reduction reaction consumes one proton per electron delivered to the matrix; the redox free energy generated by this reaction is used to pump an additional proton from the matrix to the cytosol. The resulting proton electrochemical potential (µ+) across the membrane drives the ATP-hydrolyzing proton pump (F^ oATPase) backward, synthesizing ATP from ADP and Pi (Nicholls, 1982).
