Abstract excerpt
The cbb(3) cytochrome c oxidase of Rhodobacter sphaeroides consists of four nonidentical subunits. Three subunits (CcoN, CcoO, and CcoP) comprise the catalytic "core" complex required for the reduction of O(2) and the oxidation of a c-type cytochrome. On the other hand, the functional role of subunit IV (CcoQ) of the cbb(3) oxidase was not obvious, although we previously suggested that it is involved in the...
