Exploring the Fe(III) binding sites of human serum transferrin with EPR at 275 GHz

We report 275 GHz EPR spectra of human serum transferrin. At this high microwave frequency the zero-field splitting between the magnetic sublevels of the high-spin Fe3+Fe3+ sites can be accurately determined. We find the zero-field splitting to be a sensitive probe of the structure of the transferri...
