Interaction of Cytochrome C Oxidase with Steroid Hormones
Estradiol, testosterone and other steroid hormones inhibit cytochrome c oxidase (CcO) purified from bovine heart.The inhibition is strongly dependent on concentration of dodecyl-maltoside (DM) in the assay.The plots of Ki vs [DM] are linear for both estradiol and Eczema testosterone which may indicate an 1:1 stoichiometry competition between the ho
