General Information

General Information Comment Organism
metabolism the driving force for electron transfer from type 1 copper to type 2 copper comes from a remote water-mediated triple-proton-coupled electron-transfer mechanism. In the high-pH proton channel, the water-mediated triple-proton transfer occurs from Glu113 to an intermediate water molecule, whereas in the primary channel, the transfer is from Lys128 to His260. Subsequently, the two channels employ another two or three distinct proton-transfer steps to deliver the proton to the nitrite substrate at the type 2 copper site Alcaligenes faecalis
