Abstract excerpt
The proximal iron ligand in horseradish peroxidase (HRP) is His-170. The H170A mutant of polyhistidine-tagged HRP (hHRP) has been expressed in a baculovirus system and has been purified and characterized. At pH 7, the Soret maximum of the mutant is at 414 nm rather than 403 nm. Resonance Raman spectra indicate that the protein is primarily 6-coordinate low-spin in the ferric state with a band in the ferrous state...
