Materials and MethodsThe laser flash photolysis and stopped-flow techniques and the methods of data collection and analysis were as described previously (Ahmad et al., 1981; Simondsen & Tollin, 1983; Meyer et al., 1983, 1984; Tollin et al., 1984; Przysiecki et al., 1985). In all cases, pure proteins were prepared according to the general procedures of Bartsch (1978). The pseudo-first-order decay of the flavin semiquinoneand the appearance of the reduced cytochrome were monitored at 620 nm for the high-spin proteins (cytochromes cO and at 585 nm for the low-spin proteins (cytochromes c-556and c-554) under anaerobic conditions over 3-4 half-lives. Protein concentrations were varied over a 5-10-fold range, minimally at—15, uM and maximally at— 150/uM. Typically four to five concen-trations were used to determine the second-orderrate con-stants. No saturation effects were observed. FMN was pu-rified by passage through a Bio-Gel P-2 gel filtration column equilibrated with double-distilled water (Nagy et al., 1982) and lyophilized. Solutions were made up just prior to use. Standard buffers contained 40 gM flavin, 10 mM EDTA, and 20 mM sodium phosphate, pH 7.0, for lumiflavin and riboflavin experiments. The 16 mM ionic strength buffer for the FMN experiments contained 1 mM EDTA and 5 mM phosphate; the 60 mM ionicstrength buffer contained 5 mM EDTA and 16 mM phosphate. Higher ionic strengths were made up with 10 mM EDTA and 20, 52, 100, and 222 mM phosphate, pH 7.0, giving ionic strengths of 96, 160, 256, and 500 mM, respectively.
