Abstract excerpt
This study summarizes results which have been obtained by a mutational study of human cytochrome c. The protein can be used as a recognition element in analytical assays and biosensors for superoxide radicals since ferricytochrome c reacts with superoxide to form ferrocytochrome c and oxygen. Her...
