Abstract excerpt
The interaction of azide with variants of horse heart myoglobin (Mb) has been characterized by Fourier transform infrared (FTIR), electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR), and UV-VIS absorption spectroscopy and by molecular modeling calculations. Distal histidine variants (His64Thr, His64Ile, His64Lys) and charged surface variants (Val67Arg, Lys45Glu, Lys45Glu/Lys63Glu) were included in this study. All variants,...
