The protein formula of beef heart cytochrome c oxidase.
Beef heart cytochrome c oxidase consist of 12 different polypeptides stoichiometrically arranged in respiratory complex IV. The functional 2 heme a, 2 copper monomer of this complex consist of 1793 amino acids; the exact Mr is 202,787 Da. From 17 cysteine residues, six are involved in the formation of three disulphide bonds. The theoretical heme a content of the enzyme is 9.86 nmol/mg protein. The theoretical iron and copper contents are 0.55 and 0.63 microgram/mg protein, respectively.
