In cytochromes c3 which contain four hemes per molecule, the redox properties of each heme may depend upon the redox state of the others. This effect can be described in terms of interaction redox potentials between the hemes and must be taken into account in the characterization of the redox properties of the molecule. We present here a method of measurement of these interactions based on the EPR study of the redox equilibria of the protein. The microscopic and macroscopic midpoint potentials and the interaction potentials are deduced from the analysis of the redox titration curves of the intensity and the amplitude of the EPR spectrum. This analysis includes a precise simulation of the spectrum of the protein in the oxidized state in order to determine the relative contribution of each heme to the spectral amplitude. Using our method on cytochrome c3 from D. desulfuricans Norway, we found evidence for the existence of weak interaction potentials between the hemes. The three interaction potentials which have been measured are characterized by absolute values lower than 20 mV in contrast with the values larger than 40-50 mV which have been reported for cytochrome c3 from D. gigas. Simulations of the spectra of samples poised at different potentials indicate a structural modification of the heme with the most negative potential during the first step of reduction. The correspondence between the redox sites as characterized by the EPR potentiometric titration and the hemes in the tridimensional structure is discussed.
