Different Effects of Serum Iron Status on the Relationship between Blood Lead and Zinc Protoporphyrin in Lead Workers in Korea This study was conducted to determine whether there was a different toxic effect of lead on heme synthesis by serum iron status in 360 lead workers in Kore... A Hyun...
The protein in the red blood cells of vertebrates that carries oxygen from the lungs to tissues and that consists of four polypeptide subunits, each of which is bound to an iron-containing heme molecule. Myoglobin A single-chain, iron-containing protein found in muscle fibers, structurally simila...
In photosystem II (PS II) as in the bacterial photosynthetic reaction center (RC), two quinones Q A and Q B constitute the primary and secondary electron acceptors. The three-dimensional structure of the bacterial RC showed that a non-heme iron (Fe) is located between Q A and Q B . ...
To exclude insufficient CuB insertion as the reason for the differences between the rec. WT and the ATCC WT CcOs, the completeness of the insertion of the metal cofactors in the rec. WT CcO was examined using microPixe. No irregularities in iron content were found, therefore heme a and hem...
Cell immobilization involves fixing a cell as the immobilized particle, while enzyme immobilization involves fixing an enzyme as the immobilized particle. Thus, this is the key difference between cell immobilization and enzyme immobilization. An example of cell immobilization is agarose immobilizati...
Two objectives were investigated: (1) to assess the risk of micronutrient deficiencies in relation to weight status in Indian women with a focus on iron but also including zinc, vitamin A and B vitamins and (2) to compare fractional iron absorption between obese (OB) and normal weight (NW)...

The cofactor, heme b, is embedded in a hydrophobic pocket between helices E and F and ligated to the protein via a proximal histidine residue. The central ferric iron of heme b is able to bind oxygen and other small molecules, like carbon monoxide or nitric oxide. Substrate binding and re...
Similar to the results indicated in Figure 7, the deviation between the two solutions increases with frequency. At a frequency of 101 Hz, the two modeling results are in good agreement, as indicated in Figure 10a–d, for both real and imaginary parts of the x-component electrical field with...
