Description | This entry represents subunit I of the aa3-type quinone oxidase, one of several terminal oxidases found in bacteria [ ]. This complex couples the oxidation of reduced quinones to the reduction of molecular oxygen to water, and the pumping of protons to form a proton gradient utilised for ATP production. aa3-type oxidases contain two haem A cofactors as well as copper atoms at the active site. | Name | Quinol oxidase subunit I |
Short Name | QoxB | Type | Family |
