资源简介：
The hemea3/CuB active site
of cytochrome c oxidase is responsible for cellular
nitrite reduction to nitric oxide; the same center can return NO to
the nitrite pool via oxidative chemistry. Here, we show that a partially
reduced heme/Cu assembly reduces NO2– ion, producing nitric oxide. The heme serves as the reductant, but
the CuII ion is also required. In turn, a μ-oxo heme-FeIII–O–CuII complex facilitates NO
oxidation to nitrite; the final products are the reduced heme and
CuII–nitrito complexes.
