Hemoprotein molecules exhibit so slow electron transfer that no apparent currents appear at conventional electrodes because of either their extended three-dimensional structure and the reusltant inaccessibility to the...
Iron porphyrin is an essential component of hemoglobin (Hb), myoglobin (Mb) and cytochrome etc. X-ray crystallographic result shows that the iron(Ⅱ)porphyrin takes a square pyramidal configuration and approache...
There are two classes of proteins containing iron in the organism. One is heme iron protein, such as hemoglobin, myoglobin, xanthine oxidases, cytochromes, etc. These proteins are those in which iron atoms are bound t...
