Metric Options: CountsSelecting the 1-year or 3-year option will change the metrics count to percentiles, illustrating how an article or review compares to other articles or reviews within the selected time period in the same journal. Selecting the 1-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year. Selecting the 3-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year plus the two years prior.
Example: if you select the 1-year option for an article published in 2019 and a metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019. If you select the 3-year option for the same article published in 2019 and the metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019, 2018 and 2017.

Article Description
A specific requirement for lipids, particularly cardiolipin (CL), in cytochrome c oxidase (CcO) has been reported in many previous studies using mainly in vitro lipid removal approaches in mammalian systems. Our accompanying paper shows that CcO produced in markedly CL-depleted Rhodobacter sphaeroides displays wild-type properties in all respects, likely allowed by quantitative substitution with other negatively charged lipids. To further examine the structural basis for the lipid requirements of R. sphaeroides CcO and the extent of interchangeability between lipids, we employed a metabolic approach to enhance the alteration of the lipid profiles of the CcO-expressing strains of R. sphaeroides in vivo using a phosphate-limiting growth medium in addition to the CL-deficient mutation. Strikingly, the purified CcO produced under these conditions still maintained wild-type function and characteristics, in spite of even greater depletion of cardiolipin compared to that of the CL-deficient mutant alone (undetectable by MS) and drastically altered profiles of all the phospholipids and non-phospholipids. The lipids in the membrane and in the purified CcO were identified and quantified by ESI and MALDI mass spectrometry and tandem mass spectrometry. Comparison between the molecular structures of those lipids that showed major changes provides new insight into the structural rationale for the flexible lipid requirements of CcO from R. sphaeroides and reveals a more comprehensive interchangeability network between different phospholipids and non-phospholipids. © 2011 American Chemical Society.
