Cytochrome c(Cat No.:M002712) from the bovine heart is a small hemoprotein found extensively in the mitochondria of bovine cardiac cells, playing a crucial role in the electron transport chain for cellular energy production through oxidative phosphorylation. This protein is integral in transferring electrons between Complex III and Complex IV, aiding in the generation of ATP. Beyond its metabolic function, cytochrome c is also involved in the intrinsic pathway of apoptosis, being released into the cytosol during cell stress to activate caspases.
