Hydrogen/rydride ion relay - a mechanism for early electron transfer in cytochrome c oxidases

West Indian med. j; 62 (1), 2013
Cytochrome c oxidase (COX) employs electrons obtained from cytochrome c to bring about the reduction of oxygen to water. It is known that the electrons originate from the haem edge of cytochrome c and enters bovine COX at Trp-104. It is also known that Tyr-105, Glu-198 and Asp-158 of COX subunit II play ...
