Benjamin E. Ramirez, Bo G. Malmstrom, Jay R. Winkler and Harry B. GrayBiochemistry 92 . 11949-11951, 1995.

SUMMARY: Comments on a plausible path for electron transfer between Cu_A and cytochrome a and rationalizes the fact that Cu_A is a binuclear center as a device to minimize the reorganization energy which is a principal barrier to long range electron transfer.
