General Information | Comment | Organism |

metabolism | cytochrome c oxidase is the terminal enzyme in the respiratory electron transport chain of mitochondria. It catalyzes the reduction of oxygen to water to generate the electrochemical proton gradient across the mitochondrial membrane that powers the production of ATP. The enzyme takes up four electrons from the positively charged P side (outside) of the membrane and four protons from the negatively charged N side (inside) for the reduction of dioxygen to two water molecules | Bos taurus |
