Conservedphenylalanine 35 is one of the hydrophobic patch residues on the surface of cytochromeb5 (cytb5). This patch is partially exposed on the surface of cyt b5while its buried face is in direct van der Waals’contact with heme b. Resi-dues Phe35 and Phe/Tyr74 also form an aromatic channel with His39, which is one of the axial ligands of heme b.

This patch is partially exposed on the surface of cyt b5 while its buried face is in direct van der Waals contact with heme 15. Reii-dues Phe35 and Phe Tyr74 also form an aromatic channel with His39 which is one of the axial ligands of heme b. By site-directed mutagenesis we have produced three mutants of cyt b5 Phe35fiTyr Phe35fiLeu and Phe35fiHis. We found that of these three mutants the Phe35fiTyr mutant displays abnormal properties. The redox potential of the Phe35fiTyr mutant is 66 mV more negative than that of the wild-type cyt b5 and the oxidized Phe35fiTyr mutant is more stable towards thermal and chemical denaturation than wild-type cyt b5. In this study we studied the most interesting mutant Phe35fiTyr by X-ray crystallography thermal denaturation CD and kinetic studies of heme dissociation to explore the origin of its unusual behaviors. Analysis of crystal structure of the Phe35fiTyr mutant shows that the overall structure of the mutant is basically the same as that of the wild-type protein. However the introduction of a hydroxyl group in the heme pocket and the increased van der Waals and electrostatic interactions between the side chain of Tyr35 and the heme probably result in enhancement of stability of the Phe35fiTyr mutant. The kinetic difference of the heme trapped by the heme
