The distal pockets in the myoglobin and haemoglobin are tailored so as to fit the bent oxygen, but to oppose the binding of the linear CO which is forced off the haem axis by steric hindrance. This appears to be one of the discriminating devices. The other consists of hydrogen bonding by...
of Gd-Tex in a single nanovesicle and achieving high Gd-Tex accumulation in tumors. To elucidate the impact of O2concentration on Gd-Tex radiosensitization, myoglobin (Mb) is loaded into Gd-NTs (Mb@Gd-NTs), resulting in efficient relief of tumor hypoxia and significant enhancement of Gd-Tex...
This species was assigned to be an oxy form by the spectral similarity with oxymyoglobin, by the inhibitory action of isocyanide for the new species formation, and by EPR characterization of the corresponding form of the Co2+-porphyrin-substituted enzyme. EXAFS analyses revealed that upon binding ...
The hyperfine shift changes are modulated by a single titratable group with a pK of approx. 5.7 in both proteins. Oxygen binding studies of sperm whale myoglobin over a range of temperature and pH showed that, while the oxygen affinity was independent of pH at 25°C, it increased below pH...

Red cells have unusually high concentrations of 2,3-diphosphoglycerate (2,3-DPG). One molecule of 2,3-DPG sits in a pocket indeoxyhemoglobinbound to specific β-chain residues (1, 2, 82, and 143 of both β-chains). The importance of the binding is that 2,3-DPG stabilizesthe deoxy ...
Hemoglobin Myoglobin Kinetics Oxygen Binding Respiration Retinal Metabolism Chicken Cytoglobin Neuroglobin Introduction Globins constitute a structurally conserved family of heme proteins with the ability to reversibly bind molecular oxygen (O2). A typical globin chain comprises about 140–150 amino acids an...
