The role of electrostatics in macromolecular associations: The cytochrome b(5)-cytochrome c complex

Determination of the degree of specificity in the recognition of electron transfer proteins is essential in order to gain further insights into electron transfer between biomolecules. Electrostatic interactions are generally implicated in these protein-protein interactions, including the association between cytochrome b$\sb5$ and cytochrome c. The dependence of stability of the association between cytochrome b$\sb5$ and cytochrome c on ionic strength and pH conditions is indicative of the charge-charge interactions in the interfacial domain.
