Cytochrome b(561) (cyt b(561)) is a trans-membrane cytochrome probably ubiquitous in plant cells. In vitro, it is readily reduced by ascorbate or by juglonol, which in plasma membrane (PM) preparations from plant tissues is efficiently produced by a PM-associated NAD(P)H:quinone reductase activity. In bean hypocotyl PM, juglonol-reduced cyt b(561) was not oxidized by hydrogen peroxide alone, but hydrogen peroxide led to complete oxidation of the cytochrome in the presence of a peroxidase found in apoplastic extracts of bean hypocotyls. This peroxidase active on cyt b(561) was purified from the apoplastic extract and identified as an ascorbate peroxidase of the cytosolic type. The identification was based on several grounds, including the ascorbate peroxidase activity (albeit labile), the apparent molecular mass of the subunit of 27 kDa by sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, the dimeric native structure, the typical spectral properties of a heme-containing peroxidase, and an N-terminal sequence strongly conserved with cytosolic ascorbate peroxidases of plants. Cyt b(561) used in the experiments was purified from bean hypocotyl PM and juglonol was enzymatically produced by recombinant NAD(P)H:quinone reductase. It is shown that NADPH, NAD(P)H:quinone reductase, juglone, cyt b(561), the peroxidase interacting with cvt b(561), and H2O2, in this order, constitute an artificial electron transfer chain in which cyt b(561) is indirectly reduced by NADPH and indirectly oxidized by H2O2.
