Microsecond time-resolved absorption spectroscopy used to study CO compounds of cytochrome bd from Escherichia coli.

Cytochrome bd is a tri-heme (b558, b595, d) respiratory oxygen reductase that is found in many bacteria including pathogenic species. It couples the electron transfer from quinol to O2 with generation of an electrochemical proton gradient. We examined photolysis and subsequent recombination of CO wi...
