摘要: Publisher Summary This chapter deals with the circular dichroism (CD) spectra of hemoglobins. The measurement of CD spectra as a tool to investigate the structural organization of protein molecules is of particular advantage for hemoglobins. These molecules contain, in addition to the protein moiety, the heme, with electronic transitions that are quite intense, diverse, and very sensitive both to the surrounding environment and to ligand binding. This situation offers three distinct regions of investigation, each containing …
