AccessionGenProp0614
Namecytochrome c oxidase, mitochondrial, caa3-type
TypeSYSTEM
DescriptionThe cytochrome c oxidase complex is responsible for coupling the oxidation of the reduced cytochrome c protein to the reduction of molecular oxygen to form water with the concomitant pumping of protons out of the cell. This complex is the type found in mitochondria and prokaryotes which utilize mitochondrial-type aerobic respiration. The complex in Bacilli [2] is somewhat different but included here and carrys the gene symbols CtaD/CtaC.
