Linked from

The 16 pages that link to Cytochrome c oxidase, each with the reason it gives.

• Carbon monoxideRelated: Carbon monoxide can inhibit this enzyme, impairing cellular respiration.

• CopperRelated: Its copper centers help drive the final step of oxidative phosphorylation.

• Carbon monoxide poisoningRelated: Carbon monoxide can inhibit this enzyme, impairing cellular energy production beyond its effects on hemoglobin.

• MyoglobinRelated: It is a major destination for oxygen delivered within muscle cells.

• Cyanide poisoningRelated: Cyanide binds this enzyme and prevents cells from using oxygen to make energy.

• Hydrogen cyanideRelated: Cyanide binds this enzyme and prevents cells from using oxygen to make ATP.

• CyanideRelated: Cyanide binds this enzyme’s iron-containing center and prevents oxygen reduction.

• Brown adipose tissueRelated: Its abundance in brown-fat mitochondria contributes to their high oxidative capacity.

• HydroxocobalaminRelated: Cyanide poisoning disables this enzyme; hydroxocobalamin reduces the available cyanide.

• Potassium cyanideRelated: Cyanide binds this enzyme’s heme iron and disrupts oxygen use in cells.

• Blood agentRelated: Cyanide and hydrogen sulfide can inhibit this enzyme, preventing cells from using oxygen.

• Sodium cyanideRelated: Cyanide inhibits this enzyme, preventing cells from using oxygen efficiently.

• Menkes diseaseRelated: Copper deficiency can impair this enzyme and contribute to neurological and metabolic dysfunction.

• Otto Heinrich WarburgRelated: Warburg’s work helped establish the role of iron-containing enzymes in cellular oxygen use.
