A Diffusion-Based Approach to Geminate Recombination of Heme Proteins with Small Ligands [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
A model of postphotodissociative monomolecular (geminate) recombination of heme proteins with small ligands (NO, O2 or CO) is represented. The non-exponential decay with time for the probability to find a heme in unbound state is interpreted in terms of ...

Clinically Important Features of Porphyrin and Heme Metabolism and the Porphyrias

open access: yesMetabolites, 2014
Heme, like chlorophyll, is a primordial molecule and is one of the fundamental pigments of life. Disorders of normal heme synthesis may cause human diseases, including certain anemias (X-linked sideroblastic anemias) and porphyrias.

Heme Catabolism and Heme Oxygenase in Neurodegenerative Disease

open access: yesAntioxidants & Redox Signaling, 2004
Heme oxygenase, the rate-limiting step in heme catabolism, appears to play an important role in a number of neurodegenerative disorders, such as Alzheimer disease. Interestingly, the spatial distribution of heme oxygenase-1 expression in diseased brain is essentially identical to that of the pathological expression of tau, suggesting a key role for ...

Heme b (protoheme IX) is a precursor of heme a and heme d in Bacillus subtilis [PDF]

open access: yesFEMS Microbiology Letters, 1993
Bacillus subtilis can synthesise cytochromes containing a-, b-, c- and d-type heme. The biosynthetic pathways of these heme prosthetic groups were investigated by using strains blocked in uroporphyrinogen III synthesis from porphobilinogen or in heme b (protoheme IX) synthesis from uroporphyrinogen III. The results strongly suggest that heme a and heme

Proximal and distal control for ligand binding in neuroglobin: role of the CD loop and evidence for His64 gating [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Neuroglobin (Ngb) is predominantly expressed in neurons of the central and peripheral nervous systems and it clearly seems to be involved in neuroprotection.
