The Structure of cbb 3 Cytochrome Oxidase Provides Insights into Proton Pumping

Buschmann, Sabine, Warkentin, Eberhard, Xie, Hao, Langer, Julian D., Ermler, Ulrich, Michel, Hartmut·2010·Science

Abstract

C-Family Oxidase Structure: The heme-copper oxidases (HCOs) play a key role in aerobic respiration by coupling oxygen reduction to transmembrane proton pumping to generate electrochemical ion gradients across biological membranes that provide energy for many cellular processes. Based on subunit composition, electron donor, and heme type, the HCOs are divided into three families, of which families A and B have been structurally characterized. Buschmann et al. (p. 327 , published online 24 June) now report the crystal structure of the C-family cbb3 oxidase from Pseudomonas stutzeri . The structure suggests a different redox-driven pumping mechanism from A and B HCOs, and gives insight into why C HCOs are catalytically active at low oxygen concentrations.

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.
