Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) and step-scan time-resolved FTIR spectroscopies reveal a unique active site in cytochrome caa3 oxidase from Thermus thermophilus
(2002)Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) and step-scan time-resolved FTIR difference spectra are reported for the [carbonmonoxy]cytochrome caa3 from Thermus thermophilus. A major C-O mode of heme a3 at 1958 cm-1 and two minor ...

Observation of the equilibrium CuB-CO complex and functional implications of the transient heme a3 propionates in cytochrome ba3-CO from Thermus thermophilus. Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) and time-resolved step-scan FTIR studies
(2002)We report the first evidence for the existence of the equilibrium CuB 1+-CO species of CO-bound reduced cytochrome ba3 from Thermus thermophilus at room temperature. The frequency of the C-O stretching mode of CuB 1+-CO ...

Simultaneous resonance Raman detection of the heme a3-Fe-CO and CuB-CO species in CO-bound ba3-cytochrome c oxidase from Thermus thermophilus: Evidence for a charge transfer CuB-CO transition
(2004)Understanding of the chemical nature of the dioxygen and nitric oxide moiety of ba3-cytochrome c oxidase from Thermus thermophilus is crucial for elucidation of its physiological function. In the present work, direct ...

Time-resolved step-scan Fourier transform infrared investigation of heme-copper oxidases: Implications for O2 input and H 2O/H+ output channels
(2004)We have applied FTIR and time-resolved step-scan Fourier transform infrared (TRS2-FTIR) spectroscopy to investigate the dynamics of the heme-CuB binuclear center and the protein dynamics of mammalian aa3, Pseudomonas ...
