Quinol binding sites and ubisemiquinone stabilisation in the Escherichia coli quinol oxidase, cytochrome bo3. A discussion of models for structure and function
Abstract:The mitochondrial cytochrome bc,-complex, an oligomeric membrane protein. i s one o f the fundamental components of the respiratory chain. I t catalyzes electron transfer from ubiquinol to cytochrome c, while the process is coupled to electrogenic translocation of protons across the inner mitochondrial membrane. The proton-motive Q cycle is a widely accepted model for the functioning of this complex. We study the cytochrome bc,complex from the yeast S. cerevisine as a model system. Knowledge of the high resolu… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
