Abstract excerpt
The Fe site structure in the recombinant wild-type and T721 mutant of the cooperative homodimeric hemoglobin (HbI) of the mollusc Scapharca itnaequivalvis has been investigated by measuring the Fe K-edge X-ray absorption near edge structure (XANES) spectra of their oxy, deoxy and carbonmonoxy derivatives, and the cryogenic photoproducts of the carbonmonoxy derivatives at T = 12 K. According to our results, the Fe...
