Abstract excerpt
Post-translational nitration of tyrosine is considered to be an important step in controlling the multiple functions of cytochrome c (Cyt-c). However, the underlying structural basis and mechanism are not yet understood. In this work, human Cyt-c variants in which all but one tyrosine has been substituted by phenylalanine have been studied by resonance Raman and electrochemical methods to probe the consequences...
