Cyanide inhibits more than 40 enzymes [20, 26, 27]. Cyanide's affinity for cytochrome oxidase in the mitochondrial inner membrane accounts for most toxicity. Cytochrome oxidase serves as the terminal enzyme in the electron transport chain responsible for oxidative phosphorylation and transfers electrons onto oxygen to produce water.
