Abstract excerpt
The spectroscopic and mechanistic properties of the Cu-containing active site of azurin from Pseudomonas aeruginosa were investigated by the construction of a mutant in which one of the ligands of the metal, His46, was replaced by a glycine. Although the mutation creates a hole in the interior of the protein, the 3D structure of the protein does not change to any appreciable extent. However, the spectroscopic...
