On the basis of its generally accessible I/II redox couple and bioavailability, copper plays a wide variety of roles in nature that mostly involve electron transfer (ET), O 2 binding, activation, and reduction, NO 2–and N 2 O reduction, and substrate activation. Copper sites that perform ET are the mononuclear blue Cu site that has a highly covalent Cu (II)–S (Cys) bond and the binuclear Cu A site that has a Cu 2 (S (Cys)) 2 core with a Cu–Cu bond that keeps the site delocalized (Cu (1.5) 2) in its oxidized state. In contrast to inorganic Cu complexes, these metalloprotein sites transfer electrons rapidly often over long distances, as has been previously reviewed.(1-4) Blue Cu and Cu A sites will only be considered here in their relation to intramolecular ET in multicenter enzymes. The focus of this review is on the Cu enzymes in Figure 1. Many are involved in O 2 activation and reduction, which have mostly been thought to involve at least two electrons to overcome spin-forbidden-ness and the low potential of the one-electron reduction to superoxide (Figure 2).(5, 6) Since the Cu (III) redox state has not been observed in biology, this requires either more than one Cu center or one copper and an additional redox-active organic cofactor. The latter is formed in a biogenesis reaction of a residue (Tyr) that is also Cu catalyzed in the first turnover of the protein. Recently, however, there have been a number of enzymes suggested to utilize one Cu to activate O 2 by one-electron reduction to form a Cu (II)–O 2•–intermediate (an inner-sphere redox process), and it is important to understand the active site requirements to drive this reaction. The oxidases that catalyze the four-electron reduction of O 2 to H 2 O are unique in that they effectively perform this reaction in one step, indicating that the free energy barrier for the second two-electron reduction of the peroxide product of the first two-electron step is very low. In nature, this requires either a trinuclear Cu cluster (in the multicopper oxidases) or a Cu/Tyr/heme Fe cluster (in the cytochrome oxidases). The former accomplishes this with almost no overpotential, maximizing its ability to oxidize substrates and its utility in biofuel cells, while the latter class of enzymes use the excess energy to pump protons for ATP synthesis. In bacterial denitrification, a mononuclear Cu center catalyzes the one-electron reduction of nitrite to NO while a unique μ 4 sulfide bridged tetranuclear copper cluster catalyzes the reduction of N 2 O to N 2 and H 2 O, a two-electron process yet requiring four copper atoms. Finally, there are now several classes of enzymes that utilize an oxidized Cu (II) center to activate a covalently bound substrate to react with O 2.
