Abstract excerpt
Cytochrome ba3 from Thermus thermophilus belongs to the B family of heme-copper oxidases and pumps protons across the membrane with an as yet unknown mechanism. The K channel of the A family heme-copper oxidases provides delivery of a substrate proton from the internal water phase to the binuclear heme-copper center (BNC) during the reductive phase of the catalytic cycle, while the D channel is responsible for...
