1 Here we provide substantial biochemical evidence that the heme enzyme Ccp1 (cytochrome c peroxidase), which is targeted to the intermembrane space, functions primarily as a mitochondrial H2O2 sensing and signaling protein in Saccharomyces cerevisiae.

2 Key evidence for a sensing role for Ccp1 is the significantly higher H2O2 accumulation in ccp1-null cells(ccp1Delta) vs ccp1(W191F) cells producing the catalytically inactive Ccp1(W191F) variant. Hydrogen Peroxide cytochrome-c peroxidase Saccharomyces cerevisiae S288C
3 Key evidence for a sensing role for Ccp1 is the significantly higher H2O2 accumulation in ccp1-null cells(ccp1Delta) vs ccp1(W191F) cells producing the catalytically inactive Ccp1(W191F) variant. Hydrogen Peroxide cytochrome-c peroxidase Saccharomyces cerevisiae S288C
4 Key evidence for a sensing role for Ccp1 is the significantly higher H2O2 accumulation in ccp1-null cells(ccp1Delta) vs ccp1(W191F) cells producing the catalytically inactive Ccp1(W191F) variant. Hydrogen Peroxide cytochrome-c peroxidase Saccharomyces cerevisiae S288C
5 In fact, intracellular H2O2 levels (ccp1Delta>wildtype >ccp1(W191F)) correlate inversely with the activity of the mitochondrial (and peroxisomal) heme catalase, Cta1 (ccp1Delta<wildtype <ccp1(W191F)). Hydrogen Peroxide cytochrome-c peroxidase Saccharomyces cerevisiae S288C
6 In fact, intracellular H2O2 levels (ccp1Delta>wildtype >ccp1(W191F)) correlate inversely with the activity of the mitochondrial (and peroxisomal) heme catalase, Cta1 (ccp1Delta<wildtype <ccp1(W191F)). Hydrogen Peroxide cytochrome-c peroxidase Saccharomyces cerevisiae S288C
7 Notably, Ccp1(W191F) is a more persistent H2O2 signaling protein than wild-type Ccp1, and this enhanced mitochondrial H2O2 signaling decreases the mitochondrial fitness of ccp1(W191F) cells. Hydrogen Peroxide cytochrome-c peroxidase Saccharomyces cerevisiae S288C
8 Notably, Ccp1(W191F) is a more persistent H2O2 signaling protein than wild-type Ccp1, and this enhanced mitochondrial H2O2 signaling decreases the mitochondrial fitness of ccp1(W191F) cells. Hydrogen Peroxide cytochrome-c peroxidase Saccharomyces cerevisiae S288C
9 Notably, Ccp1(W191F) is a more persistent H2O2 signaling protein than wild-type Ccp1, and this enhanced mitochondrial H2O2 signaling decreases the mitochondrial fitness of ccp1(W191F) cells. Hydrogen Peroxide cytochrome-c peroxidase Saccharomyces cerevisiae S288C
10 Combined, our results strongly implicate Ccp1, independent of its peroxidase activity, in mitochondrial H2O2 sensing and signaling to maintain reactive oxygen species homeostasis. Hydrogen Peroxide cytochrome-c peroxidase Saccharomyces cerevisiae S288C
