Abstract excerpt
The vibrational Stark effect is gaining popularity as a method for probing electric fields in proteins. In this work, we employ it to explain the effect of single charge mutations in dehaloperoxidase-hemoglobin A (DHP A) on the kinetics of the enzyme. In a previous communication published in this journal (BBRC 2012, 420, 733-737) it has been shown that an increase in the overall negative charge of DHP A through...
