... c dynamics myoglobin redox protein Protein complex formation is a complicated process with a very small success rate. To form a specific complex, protein must bind in a defined orientation on a defined surface patch of the partner. The chance of this happening during a diffusional...

... biochemical, molecular and spectroscopic methods. Recently, we have applied ultrafast 2D-IR (two-dimensional IR) spectroscopy to the analysis of NO–protein interactions using Mb (myoglobin) and Cc (cytochrome c ) as model haem proteins. The ultrafast fluctuations of Cc and Mb show marked differences...

...D. Lavalette; C. Tétreau; L. Mouawad Biophysical techniques developed during the last three decades have provided an increasingly detailed description of the internal processes associated with ligand capture and release by haem proteins. Myoglobin has long been the paradigm for these studies. More...

Specifically, the evolving techniques that will be discussed are: (1) 1 H MRS of myoglobin to assess the intracellular partial pressure of O 2 , (2) 31 P MRS to assess...
