Identification of essential amino acids in the Cu(A) binding domain: Site directed mutagenesis in subunit II of cytochrome c oxidase of Saccharomyces cerevisiae
The Cu$\rm\sb{A}$ center, located in subunit II of cytochrome c oxidase, is the primary site for electron entry from cytochrome c. The recent crystal structure confirms this site to be a binuclear copper center with a dithiolate, dihistidyl coordination. A methionine and the carbonyl oxygen of Glu$\...
