Cytochrome aa3 research, conceptual image. Molecule of cytochrome aa3 with parts embedded in ice cubes, representing studies of the molecule being carried out at low temperatures. The secondary structure of alpha helices (coils) is shown, along with haem groups (sticks, red) containing iron atoms (spheres). Cytochrome aa3 is one of main subunits of cytochrome c oxidase, which is the terminal enzyme of the respiratory chain of mitochondria and many aerobic bacteria.
