Neuroprotective effect of neuroglobin in hypoxia/ischemia
Сибирский научный медицинский журнал, 2021 Neuroglobin is a representative of the globin group, an oxygen-binding protein which is predominantly expressed in the nervous system. Despite the large amount of conducted research, its role is still poorly understood.

Modulating Nitric Oxide Dioxygenase and Nitrite Reductase of Cytoglobin through Point Mutations
Antioxidants, 2022 Cytoglobin is a hexacoordinate hemoglobin with physiological roles that are not clearly understood. Previously proposed physiological functions include nitric oxide regulation, oxygen sensing, or/and protection against oxidative stress under hypoxic ...

A phylogenomic profile of globins
BMC Evolutionary Biology, 2006 Background Globins occur in all three kingdoms of life: they can be classified into single-domain globins and chimeric globins. The latter comprise the flavohemoglobins with a C-terminal FAD-binding domain and the gene-regulating globin coupled sensors ...

Lessons from the post-genomic era: Globin diversity beyond oxygen binding and transport
Redox Biology, 2020 Vertebrate hemoglobin (Hb) and myoglobin (Mb) were among the first proteins whose structures and sequences were determined over 50 years ago. In the subsequent pregenomic period, numerous related proteins came to light in plants, invertebrates and ...

Challenges in the Diagnosis of Beta-thalassemia Syndrome: The Importance of Molecular Diagnosis
Oman Medical Journal, 2022 Patients with heterozygous β-thalassemia are generally asymptomatic. However, the intermediate phenotype is uncommon, and patients require further investigation to confirm the diagnosis.

Visible Volume: a Robust Measure for Protein Structure Characterization [PDF]
, 1997 We propose a new characterization of protein structure based on the natural tetrahedral geometry of the β carbon and a new geometric measure of structural similarity, called visible volume.

Nitrosative stress defences of the enterohepatic pathogenic bacterium Helicobacter pullorum [PDF]
, 2017 Helicobacter pullorum is an avian bacterium that causes gastroenteritis, intestinal bowel and hepatobiliary diseases in humans. Although H. pullorum has been shown to activate the mammalian innate immunity with release of nitric oxide (NO), the proteins ...

Nitric Oxide Trickle Drives Heme into Hemoglobin and Muscle Myoglobin
Cells, 2022 Ever since the days of NO being proclaimed as the “molecule of the year”, the molecular effects of this miracle gas on the globins have remained elusive.
