Water molecules inside the protein are involved in the proton pumping activity as proton carriers. A highly conserved water molecule, among different CcO enzymes, lies between the heme a 3 propionates. Here, we show, by quantum mechanical/molecular mechanical (QM/MM) simulations, that this conserved water molecule can transfer its proton to propionate-A. His403 residue coordinates to the Mg site near the so-called water pool. By both QM/MM and molecular dynamics calculations, we demonstrate that the also conserved His403 residue, adjacent to the heme a 3 propionate-A, plays a role of a valve controlling the protonation state of the propionate-A/Asp399 pair. This, in turn, controls the oxidation state of the heme a 3 iron, linking in this way, the D-proton pathway to the water pool | URI: | https://hdl.handle.net/20.500.14279/3304 | ISSN: | 15205207 | DOI: | 10.1021/jp1115993 | Rights: | © American Chemical Society | Type: | Article | Affiliation: | Cyprus University of Technology Foundation for Research & Technology-Hellas (F.O.R.T.H.)
