“…These are located in putative transmembrane helices II and X for the low-spin haem (PoxC: H71, H390; and PoxI: H59, H373) and in helices VI, VII and X for the high-spin haem and the copper ion (PoxC: H252, H302, H303, H388; and PoxI: H219, H268, H269, H371) as found for well-investigated terminal oxidases of known structure (Abramson et al, 2000;Chepuri et al, 1990;Iwata et al, 1995;Santana et al, 2001;Soulimane et al, 2000;Tsubaki et al, 1994). The residues for the K channel of proton pumping are conserved in both oxidases (PoxC: Y257, S268, S328, K331; and PoxI: Y223, S234, S295, Y299).…”
