Atomic models for the polypeptide backbones of myohemerythrin and hemerythrin

A tentative atomic model, including the polypeptide backbone and side chains of residues in the active center, has been constructed for myohemerythrin. The model was built to fit a low resolution electron density map for this molecule while meeting several conditions for stereochemical reasonablenes...

Zusammenfassung:A tentative atomic model, including the polypeptide backbone and side chains of residues in the active center, has been constructed for myohemerythrin. The model was built to fit a low resolution electron density map for this molecule while meeting several conditions for stereochemical reasonableness. An adaptation of this model serves also to explain an electron density map of octameric hemerythrin.
