The iron atoms found in the middle of the two Heme A molecules play a role in transporing electrons from cytochrome c to the O2 molecules in order to allow the formation of water and the tranport of 4 hydrogen ions across the inner membrane of the mitochondria.<br />(UofT Undergraduate)Dmitri Tchigvintsevnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37148773.post-8488568948561384872012-04-16T19:58:45.135-04:002012-04-16T19:58:45.135-04:00Molecule # 166 is Heme A, in its oxidised form (i....Molecule # 166 is Heme A, in its oxidised form (i.e. with Fe3+) .
