Abstract
⺠Cyt c forms complexes with cardiolipin (CL) and catalyzes CL peroxidation. ⺠Tyrosyl radicals are reactive intermediates of cyt c/CL peroxidase. ⺠Tyr67 is closest to the heme-iron of cyt c. ⺠Tyr67 mutant displayed weakest EPR radical signals and lowest CL peroxidation. ⺠Tyr67 is a likely electron-donor in the oxygenase half-reaction of cyt c/CL complex.
