CuA and CuZ are variants of the electron transfer center in nitrous oxide reductase.

Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America - 18 Aug 1998

Farrar J A, Zumft W G, Thomson A J

Abstract excerpt

Nitrous oxide reductase (N2OR) is a dimeric copper-dependent bacterial enzyme that catalyzes the reduction of N2O to N2 as part of the denitrification pathway. In the absence of an x-ray crystal structure, the current model of the nature of the copper sites within the enzyme is based on four copper atoms per monomer and assigns two copper atoms to an electron transfer center, CuA, a bis-thiolate-bridged dinuclear...
