Role of Second Quinone Binding Site in Proton Pumping by Respiratory Complex I

Role of Second Quinone Binding Site in Proton Pumping by Respiratory Complex I

Respiratory complex I performs the reduction of quinone (Q) to quinol (QH2) and pumps protons across the membrane. Structural data on complex I have provided spectacular insights into the electron and proton transfer paths, as well as into the long (~30 Å) and unique substrate binding channel. Howev...
