The video tutorial explains the mechanism of cytochrome C oxidase, focusing on proton pumping and electron transfer within the mitochondria. It details how the enzyme uses protons from the mitochondrial matrix to create a proton gradient, essential for ATP synthase. The mechanism involves multiple steps of electron flow and proton transfer, ultimately converting molecular oxygen into water. The tutorial emphasizes the importance of understanding these processes for a deeper insight into cellular respiration.
