Dewetting transitions coupled to K-channel activation in cytochrome c oxidase

Cytochrome c oxidase (CcO) drives aerobic respiratory chains in all organisms by transducing the free energy from oxygen reduction into an electrochemical proton gradient across a biological membrane. CcO employs the so-called D- and K-channels for proton uptake, but the molecular mechanism for acti...
