Proton-transfer pathways in the mitochondrial S. cerevisiae cytochrome c oxidase

Abstract In cytochrome c oxidase (CytcO) reduction of O2 to water is linked to uptake of eight protons from the negative side of the membrane: four are substrate protons used to form water and four are pumped across the membrane. In bacterial oxidases, the substrate protons are taken up through the...
