The formation of the hyponitrite species from two NO molecules is the key intermediate in the reduction of NO to N 2 O in denitrification. [1] The reaction is used by bacteria as an alternative to oxygen-based respiration. [1,2] The bacterial nitric oxide reductase (Nor) and the ba 3 -oxidoreductase

## Abstract The electronic structures of heme __a__ of cytochrome __c__ oxidase in the redox states were studied, using hybrid density functional theory with a polarizable continuum model and a point charge model. We found that the most stable electronic configurations of the d electrons of the Fe
The excited states of four hemes, c-552, c-554, c-556, and c-559, in a c-type cytochrome subunit of the photosynthetic reaction center (PSRC) of Rhodopseudomonas (Rps.) viridis were studied using the symmetry-adapted cluster (SAC)-configuration interaction (CI) method. c-552 has two imidazole ligand
