Domain Context

CATH Clusters

Superfamily Cytochrome c oxidase-like, subunit I domain
Functional Family Cytochrome o ubiquinol oxidase, subunit I

Enzyme Information

7.1.1.3
Ubiquinol oxidase (H(+)-transporting).
based on mapping to UniProt P0ABI8
2 ubiquinol + O(2) + n H(+)(Side 1) = 2 ubiquinone + 2 H(2)O + n H(+)(Side 2).
-!- This terminal oxidase enzyme generates proton motive force by two mechanisms: (1) transmembrane charge separation resulting from utilizing protons and electrons originating from opposite sides of the membrane to generate water, and (2) active pumping of protons across the membrane. -!- The bioenergetic efficiency (the number of charges driven across the membrane per electron used to reduce oxygen to water) depends on the enzyme; for example, for the bo(3) oxidase it is 2, while for the bd-II oxidase it is 1. -!- Cf. EC 7.1.1.7. -!- Formerly EC 1.10.3.10.
