Electron and proton transfer in the ba3 oxidase from Thermus thermophilus

The ba 3 -type cytochrome c oxidase from Thermus thermophilus is phylogenetically very distant from the aa 3 –type cytochrome c oxidases. Nevertheless, both types of oxidases have the same number of redox-active metal sites and the reduction of O 2 to water is catalysed at a haem a 3 -Cu B catalytic...
