The redox dependent changes in the cytochrome c oxidase from bovine heart were studied with a combined electrochemical and FT-IR spectroscopic approach. A direct comparison to the electrochemically induced FT-IR difference spectra of the cytochrome c oxidase from Paracoccus denitrificans reveals differences in the structure and intensity of vibrational modes. These differences are partially attributed to interactions of subunits influencing the heme and protein modes. In the spectral regions characteristic for v(C=O) and v(COO-)s/as modes of protonated and deprotonated Asp and Glu residues, additional signals at 1736, 1602 and 1588 cm-1 are observed. On this basis, the possible involvement of Asp-51, a residue specifically conserved in mammalian oxidase and previously proposed to show redox depended conformational changes in the respective X-ray structures, is critically discussed.
