Splitting of the O–O bond at the heme-copper catalytic site of respiratory oxidases

Heme-copper oxidases catalyze the four-electron reduction of O(2) to H(2)O at a catalytic site that is composed of a heme group, a copper ion (Cu(B)), and a tyrosine residue. Results from earlier experimental studies have shown that the O–O bond is cleaved simultaneously with electron transfer from...
