Function
APPC_ECOLI A terminal oxidase that catalyzes quinol-dependent, Na(+)-independent oxygen uptake. Prefers menadiol over other quinols although ubiquinol was not tested (PubMed:8626304). Generates a proton motive force using protons and electrons from opposite sides of the membrane to generate H(2)O, transferring 1 proton/electron.[1] [2] [3] [4]
