## Abstract Most of biological oxygen reduction is catalyzed by the heme‐copper oxygen reductases. These enzymes are redox‐driven proton pumps that take part in generating the proton gradient in both prokaryotes and mitochondria that drives synthesis of ATP. The enzymes have been divided into three
## Abstract Brain mitochondrial cytochrome oxidase and respiratory activities were compared after __in vivo__ and __in vitro__ exposure to cyanide. For the __in vivo__ studies, mice were exposed to a non‐lethal (4 mg kg^−1^) or lethal (20 mg kg^−1^) dose of KCN. From these mice, purified brain mito
