Abstract excerpt
Cytochrome bc1 is one of the enzymes of electron transport chain responsible for generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS). While ROS are considered to be products of side reactions of quinol oxidation site (Qo), molecular aspects of their generation remain unclear. One of them concerns significance of hemes b (bL and bH) redox potentials (Em) and properties on ROS generation by Qo. Here we addressed this...
