The spectral characteristics of the '655 nm' band of cytochrome oxidase were found to be affected by ligands of the binuclear centre, including formate and chloride, and by the resting/pulsed transition. The band titrated with near n = 1 characteristics at a midpoint of about 400 mV, in contrast to haem a3, which exhibits strong redox interaction and a titration range at significantly lower potential. Thus, although the total reduced-oxidised difference spectrum of haem a3 shows a trough at about 655 nm, this characteristic is absent in the low potential region. The 655 nm feature may arise from a charge transfer band of ferric high-spin haem a3, which is modulated by the redox state of CuB, as suggested by Beinert et al. [(1976) Biochim. Biophys. Acta 423, 339-355].
