The inhibitory binding site(s) of Zn2+ in cytochrome c oxidase

EXAFS identifies tetrahedral coordination site(s) for Zn2+ with two N‐histidine imidazoles, one N‐histidine imidazol or N‐lysine and one O–COOH (glutamate or aspartate), possibly located at the entry site of the proton conducting D pathway in the oxidase and involved in inhibition of the oxygen redu...

Zusammenfassung:EXAFS identifies tetrahedral coordination site(s) for Zn2+ with two N‐histidine imidazoles, one N‐histidine imidazol or N‐lysine and one O–COOH (glutamate or aspartate), possibly located at the entry site of the proton conducting D pathway in the oxidase and involved in inhibition of the oxygen reduction catalysis and proton pumping by internally trapped zinc.
