additional information | after the initial binding of O2, the OO bond is heterolytically cleaved to yield a kinetically competent heme d oxoferryl porphyrin pi-cation radical intermediate magnetically interacting with heme b595. This intermediate accumulates to 0.75-0.85 per enzyme in agreement with its much higher rate of formation at 20000 per s compared with its rate of decay of 1900 per s. The intermediate is next converted to a short lived heme d oxoferryl in a phase kinetically matched to the oxidation of heme b558 before completion of the reaction. The results indicate that cytochrome bd oxidases break the O-O bond in a single four-electron transfer without a peroxide intermediate. The fourth electron is donated by the porphyrin moiety rather than by a nearby amino acid | Escherichia coli | ? | - |
