The electron distribution in the “activated” state of cytochrome c oxidase

Cytochrome c oxidase catalyzes reduction of O(2) to H(2)O at a catalytic site that is composed of a copper ion and heme group. The reaction is linked to translocation of four protons across the membrane for each O(2) reduced to water. The free energy associated with electron transfer to the catalyti...
