Abstract excerpt
Asn and Gln with an amide group at gamma- and delta-positions, respectively, were substituted for distal His-E7 of bovine myoglobin to establish a system where hydrogen bonding interaction between the distal residue and bound-ligand can be altered by changing donor-acceptor distance. Two mutant myoglobins showed nearly identical (1)H-NMR spectral pattern for resolved heme peripheral side-chain and amino acid...
