Full crystallographic information is available from OCA. For a guided tour on the structure components use FirstGlance. Ligands: CUA, ZN Activity: Cytochrome-c oxidase, with EC number 1.9.3.1 Resources: FirstGlance, OCA, PDBe, RCSB, PDBsum, ProSAT Function [COX2_THETH] Subunits I and II form the functional core of the enzyme complex. Electrons originating in cytochrome c are transferred via heme a and Cu(A) to the binuclear center formed by heme a3 and Cu(B). Evolutionary Conservation Check, as determined by ConSurfDB.

Publication Abstract from PubMed The structure of the CuA-containing, extracellular domain of Thermus thermophilus ba3-type cytochrome c oxidase has been determined to 1.6 A resolution using multiple X-ray wavelength anomalous dispersion (MAD). The Cu2S2 cluster forms a planar rhombus with a copper-copper distance of 2.51 +/- 0.03 A. X-ray absorption fine-structure (EXAFS) studies show that this distance is unchanged by crystallization. The CuA center is asymmetrical; one copper is tetrahedrally coordinated to two bridging cysteine thiolates, one histidine nitrogen and one methionine sulfur, while the other is trigonally coordinated by the two cysteine thiolates and a histidine nitrogen. Combined sequence-structure alignment of amino acid sequences reveals conserved interactions between cytochrome c oxidase subunits I and II.
