basic FUNCTION
  • ferrocytochrome c:oxygen oxidoreductase
  • catalyzing the electron transfer from reduced cytochrome c to oxygen
  • CELLULAR PROCESS
    PHYSIOLOGICAL PROCESS electron transport
    PATHWAY

    a component
  • component of the cytochrome oxidace c (ferrocytochrome c : oxygen oxidoreductase) complex,terminal enzyme in the mitochondrial respiratory chain ( oxidative phosphorylation OXPHOS)
  • heteromeric complex consisting of 3 catalytic subunits encoded by mitochondrial genes and multiple structural subunits encoded by nuclear genes
