Photoglobin, a distinct family of non-heme binding globins, defines a potential photosensor in prokaryotic signal transduction systems

Computational and Structural Biotechnology Journal, 2022
Globins constitute an ancient superfamily of proteins, exhibiting enormous structural and functional diversity, as demonstrated by many heme-binding families and two non-heme binding families that were discovered in bacterial stressosome component RsbR ...

Phylogeny of Echinoderm Hemoglobins. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2015
Recent genomic information has revealed that neuroglobin and cytoglobin are the two principal lineages of vertebrate hemoglobins, with the latter encompassing the familiar myoglobin and α-globin/β-globin tetramer hemoglobin, and several minor groups.

Low levels of nitric oxide promotes heme maturation into several hemeproteins and is also therapeutic

Redox Biology, 2022
Nitric oxide (NO) is a signal molecule and plays a critical role in the regulation of vascular tone, displays anti-platelet and anti-inflammatory properties.

Gelling Properties of Globin-Succinylated Globin Conjugates.

NIPPON SHOKUHIN KOGYO GAKKAISHI, 1993
2種類のグロビン-サクシニル化グロビン複合体(CMHTとCUT)を調製し,各複合体のゲル特性について検討した.(1) CMHTはGの配合比率が高くなる程ゲル形成pHは中性の方へ拡大した.例えば, GとSGの配合率が3:7の場合,ゲル形成pHは2.0であったが,G:SG=9:1の場合,ゲルはpH 2.0～3.5の範囲で形成された.一方, G:SGの配合比率が7:3と9:1のCUTの場合,ゲル形成pHは極めて狭い範囲に限定された.(2) ゲルの透明度はCMHT, CUTともにより酸性側で高く,また,グロビンの配合比率が高くなる程透明度も高くなる傾向を示した.(3) 複合体ゲルのゲル強度を測定した. CMHTの場合, G:SG=5:5 (pH 2.0)で高いゲル強度が得られた.

Engineered chimeras reveal the structural basis of hexacoordination in globins: A case study of neuroglobin and myoglobin [PDF]

, 2015
Background: Myoglobin (Mb) and neuroglobin (Ngb) are representative members of pentacoordinated and bishistidyl, hexacoordinated globins. In spite of their low sequence identity, they show surprisingly similar threedimensional folds. The ability of Ngb

Phenotypic and Genotypic Analysis of Two Rare Cases of ‐‐SEA/‐α4.3 HbH Disease

Journal of Clinical Laboratory Analysis, EarlyView.
We report two unrelated adult patients with rare deletional HbH disease (genotype ‐‐SEA/‐α4.3). This novel 4.3 kb deletion covering the HBA1 gene is accompanied by X‐Y‐Z segment recombination, which was identified by CycloneSEQ long‐read nanopore sequencing.
