Molecular Mechanism of Proton Translocation by Cytochrome c Oxidase

Belevich, Ilya, Verkhovsky, Michael I.·2008·Antioxidants & Redox Signaling

Abstract

Cytochrome c oxidase (CcO) is a terminal protein of the respiratory chain in eukaryotes and some bacteria. It catalyzes most of the biologic oxygen consumption on earth done by aerobic organisms. During the catalytic reaction, CcO reduces dioxygen to water and uses the energy released in this process to maintain the electrochemical proton gradient by functioning as a redox-linked proton pump. Even though the structures of several terminal oxidases are known, they are not sufficient in themselves to explain the molecular mechanism of proton pumping. Thus, additional extensive studies of CcO by varieties of biophysical and biochemical approaches are involved to shed light on the mechanism of proton translocation. In this review, we summarize the current level of knowledge about CcO, including the latest model developed to explain the CcO proton-pumping mechanism.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
