Structure Heme group has polypeptide chain wrapped around it Contains Variable number of Amino acids Nitrogen atom from histidine and a Sulfur atom from methionine segment are coordinated with Iron atom 10 12-Oct-17
Cytochrome -C- Oxidase Uses metal to shuffle electron into oxygen molecule 4 Fe 2+ -cytochrome c + 8 H + in + O 2 → 4 Fe 3+ -cytochrome c + 2 H 2 O + 4 H + out 11 12-Oct-17

Electron Transport Chain 13 12-Oct-17
Complex 3 rd Also called cyt bc1 complex Has cyt B and Cyt C Cyt B has Heme B Cyt c has Heme C Reskie iron sulfur also present 14 12-Oct-17
Complex 4 th Also known as cyt a complex Has various subunits Subunit 1: heme groups and Cu ion Subunit 2: Has 2 Cu ion Subunit 3: role not clear but important for the functioning of this complex 15 12-Oct-17
Conclusions 16 12-Oct-17 Electron transferring protein Cytochrome types differ by attachment of different groups C ytochrome found in all sort of life Mitochondria in which cytochrome plays its role Electron transport chain complexes involves in the ETC ATP
