[11] In post-assembly modifications, COX will form a homodimer. The products of these steps have been found, though specific subunit compositions have not been determined. The ligand is posited to electrostatically stabilize both metals at once by positioning itself between them. They can operate through either direct or indirect interaction with other components of translation machinery, but exact molecular mechanisms are unclear due to difficulties associated with synthesizing translation machinery in-vitro. The cytochrome c oxidases belong to the haem–copper superfamily of structurally and functionally related enzymes; though related in structure, some bacterial variants lack amino acid residues that are known to be obligatory for the function of the members of … Cytochrome oxidase is a transmembrane protein in the inner mitochondrial membrane. Higher levels of NO, which correlate with the existence of more enzyme in the reduced state, lead to a greater inhibition of cyanide. Then, a few hydrogen ions are added as well, forming two water molecules. It is the last enzyme in the respiratory electron transport chain of cells located in the membrane.
