The ubiquitous use of heme in animals poses severe biological and chemical challenges. Free heme is toxic to cells and is a potential source of iron for pathogens. For protection, especially in ...
Heme is an essential part of the protein hemoglobin, which colors human blood red. Heme also is crucial for cytochrome proteins, which power the cell. Humans, animals, plants and bacteria all use heme ...
Researchers described for the first time the structure of a bifunctional protein, called CcsBA, that transports heme and attaches it to cytochromes. The study captured two conformational states of ...
Heme oxygenase catalyzes the first step in the oxidative degradation of heme. The crystal structure of heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1) reported here reveals a novel helical fold with the heme sandwiched ...
