Neuroglobin, A Novel Member of the Globin Family, Is Expressed in Focal Regions of the Brain

open access: yes, 2002
Hemoproteins are widely distributed among unicellular eukaryotes, plants, and animals. In addition to myoglobin and hemoglobin, a third hemoprotein, neuroglobin, has recently been isolated from vertebrate brain. Although the functional role of this novel

Human neuroglobin functions as a redox-regulated nitrite reductase.

open access: yes, 2018
Neuroglobin is a highly conserved hemoprotein of uncertain physiological function that evolved from a common ancestor to hemoglobin and myoglobin. It possesses a six-coordinate heme geometry with proximal and distal histidines directly bound to the heme ...

Engineering the internal cavity of neuroglobin demonstrates the role of the haem-sliding mechanism

open access: yes, 2014
Neuroglobin is a member of the globin family involved in neuroprotection; it is primarily expressed in the brain and retina of vertebrates. Neuroglobin belongs to the heterogeneous group of hexacoordinate globins that have evolved in animals, plants ...

Divergent distribution of cytoglobin and neuroglobin in the murine eye

open access: yes, 2005
Neuroglobin (Ngb) and cytoglobin (Cygb) are two vertebrate globins with yet poorly defined functions. Previous studies had demonstrated a high expression level of neuroglobin in the mammalian retina, being in line with a respiratory function.

Functional and comparative studies of haemoproteins from polar fishes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Proteins, such as the members of the globin superfamily, are sensitive to temperature and their properties are the result of a long process of adaptation to the conditions encountered during the species evolution.
