CRYO-STRUCTURE OF THE PARACOCCUS DENITRIFICANS FOUR-SUBUNIT CYTOCHROME C OXIDASE IN THE COMPLETELY OXIDIZED STATE COMPLEXED WITH AN ANTIBODY FV FRAGMENT
Overview
Cytochrome c oxidase catalyzes the reduction of oxygen to water. This, process is accompanied by the vectorial transport of protons across the, mitochondrial or bacterial membrane ("proton pumping"). The mechanism of, proton pumping is still a matter of debate. Many proposed mechanisms, require structural changes during the reaction cycle of cytochrome c, oxidase. Therefore, the structure of the cytochrome c oxidase was, determined in the completely oxidized and in the completely reduced states, at a temperature of 100 K. No ligand exchanges or other major structural, changes upon reduction of the cytochrome c oxidase from Paracoccus, denitrificans were observed. The three histidine Cu(B) ligands are well, defined in the oxidized and in the reduced states. These results are, hardly ... [(full description)]
