Abstract
⺠Cytochrome ba3 (ba3) of T. thermophilus is a member of the heme-copper oxidase family. ⺠ba3 has a binuclear catalytic center comprised of a heme (heme a3) and a copper (CuB). ⺠The kinetics of the reaction of the enzyme with oxygen has a fast and a slow phase. ⺠The slow phase of the reaction is attributed to transient binding of oxygen to CuB.
