CYB5D2 requires heme-binding to regulate HeLa cell growth and confer survival from chemotherapeutic agents.

The cytochrome b5 domain containing 2 (CYB5D2; Neuferricin) protein has been reported to bind heme, however, the critical residues responsible for heme-binding are undefined. Furthermore, the relationship between heme-binding and CYB5D2-mediated intracellular functions remains unknown. Previous stud...
