Mechanism of Sulfide Binding by Ferric Hemeproteins [PDF]

open access: yesInorganic Chemistry, 2018
The reaction of hydrogen sulfide (H2S) with hemeproteins is a key physiological reaction; still, its mechanism and implications are not completely understood. In this work, we propose a combination of experimental and theoretical tools to shed light on the reaction in model system microperoxidase 11 (MP11-FeIII) and myoglobin (Mb-FeIII), from the ...

In Silico Insight into the Reductive Nitrosylation of Ferric Hemeproteins

open access: yesInorganic Chemistry, 2020
A combination of in silico methods was used to extend the experimental description of the reductive nitrosylation mechanism in ferric hemeproteins with the molecular details of the role of surrounding amino acids. The computational strategy consisted in the estimation of potential energy profiles for the transition process associated with the ...

Optimization of Hnox Protein Production in Escherichia Coli

open access: yesCumhuriyet Science Journal, 2017
Hemeproteinscarry a variety of different functions in organisms ranging from steroidbiosynthesis to respiration, signaling to drug metabolism. In industry,hemeproteins are used for production of drugs such as: pravastatin for loweringcholesterol ...

A quantitative model for oxygen uptake and release in a family of hemeproteins [PDF]

open access: yesBioinformatics, 2016
Abstract Motivation: Hemeproteins have many diverse functions that largely depend on the rate at which they uptake or release small ligands, like oxygen. These proteins have been extensively studied using either simulations or experiments, albeit only qualitatively and one or two proteins at a time.

Biomimetic chemistry of hemeproteins.

open access: yesThe Keio Journal of Medicine, 1989
Hemeproteins play important physiological roles for an oxygen metabolism in living organisms. Their functions are divided to three main groups, i) hemoglobins, myoglobins and the cytochromes which function by transporting and storing dioxygen and electrons; ii) catalase and peroxidases which are activated by hydrogen peroxide, iii) cytochrome oxidase ...

Hemeproteins in anaerobes

open access: yes, 2007
Hemeproteins are widespread in all groups of living organisms, both as components of key biological processes as well as in very specific metabolic pathways. By variation of either the heme porphyrin structure or the heme protein environment, the function and behavior of the hemeproteins may vary drastically, allowing its role in the most diverse ...

Vibrational Energy Flow in Hemeproteins

open access: yes19th International Conference on Ultrafast Phenomena, 2014
We demonstrate that time-resolved anti-Stokes ultraviolet resonance Raman spectroscopy is a powerful tool for studying the vibrational energy flow in proteins with a spatial resolution of a single amino acid residue.

Hemeproteins: Recent Advances in Quantitative XANES Analysis

open access: yesAIP Conference Proceedings, 2007
Recently, we have shown that multiple scattering (MS) theory, via the MXAN package, is able to reproduce the experimental X‐ray absorption near edge structure (XANES) data of biological samples, in particular hemeproteins, from the rising edge up to ∼150–200 eV above the edge.
