Abstract excerpt
Protein domain movement of the Rieske iron-sulfur protein has been speculated to play an essential role in the bifurcated oxidation of ubiquinol catalyzed by the cytochrome bc1 complex. To better understand the electron transfer mechanism of the bifurcated ubiquinol oxidation at Qp site, we fixed the head domain of ISP at the cyt c1 position by creating an intersubunit disulfide bond between two genetically...
