Testing the sensitivity of g = 1.94 and g = 2.0 signals to inhibitors and mutations that abolish
the activity of the Qo site. X-Band EPR spectra of isolated
WT cytochrome bc1 obtained under the conditions
described for Figure 1c in the presence of
antimycin alone (a) or antimycin and one of the Qo site
inhibitors: tridecyl-stigmatellin (b), atovaquone (c), famoxadone
(d), myxothiazol (e), azoxystrobin (f), or kresoxim-methyl (g). Spectra
of antimycin-inhibited mutants G158W (h) and the b-c1 subcomplex (i). The left panel (FeS)
shows spectra measured at 20 K in a magnetic field range of the FeS
signal, and the right panel (SQo) shows spectra measured
at 200 K in a magnetic field range typical of organic radicals.
