Cytochrome c oxidase (heme aa3) from Paracoccus denitrificans: analysis of mutations in putative proton channels of subunit I.

abstract：:The inner membrane of yeast and mammalian mitochondria has been studied in situ with a patch clamp electrode. Anion channels were found in both cases, although their behavior and regulation are different. In mammalian mitochondria, the principal channel is of around 100 pS conductance and opens mainly under depolarize...
