摘要: Myoglobin is known to be the reference protein that why knowledge of conformational behavior myoglobin-like structure common importance for understanding mechanism functioning. In this work fluorescence was used study pH- and ligand-induced changes in sperm whale myoglobin related structures — apomyoglobin (apo-Mb) complex apo-Mb with protoporphyrin IX (PPIX-apo-Mb) which a iron-free analog Mb. The structural at N-terminal adjacent region were followed by two invariant tryptophans A-helix, Trp7(A5) Trpl4(A12), while those “active site”, heme crevice, emission PPIX. As distinct from non-fluorescing heme, PPIX has an extensive visible spectral region.
