Role of heme propionates in myoglobin electron transfer

Myoglobin (Mb) is a well characterized hemeprotein found in skeletal muscle. The dimethylester heme-substituted derivative of equine Mb (DME-Mb) was prepared to evaluate the involvement of the heme propionate groups in the electron transfer reactions of Mb. To achieve this goal, an efficient procedu...
