Oxygen kinetics of frozen cytochrome oxidase. The capacity of the oxygen pocket. 1980

K De Fonseka, and B Chance

Low-temperature kinetics of the reaction between O2 and cytochrome oxidase suggest the existence of an O2 pocket of limited capacity in membrane-bound cytochrome oxidase, and one of larger capacity in purified cytochrome oxidase. A model is proposed to explain the difference in capacity of the pockets.

D003576 Electron Transport Complex IV A multisubunit enzyme complex containing CYTOCHROME A GROUP; CYTOCHROME A3; two copper atoms; and 13 different protein subunits. It is the terminal oxidase complex of the RESPIRATORY CHAIN and collects electrons that are transferred from the reduced CYTOCHROME C GROUP and donates them to molecular OXYGEN, which is then reduced to water. The redox reaction is simultaneously coupled to the transport of PROTONS across the inner mitochondrial membrane.
