Nuclear Magnetic Resonance Investigation of the Interaction of Heme Binding Proteins with SnIVprotoporphyrin IX and Heme: Structure and Conformational Changes of Myoglobin and Hemopexin
Tin protoporphyrin IX (SnPP) is currently under investigation for the treatment of hyperbilirubinemia. The study of the complex between SnPP and equine myoglobin (EqMb) by ¹H and ¹¹⁹Sn nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy (NMR) can be viewed as a general model for SnPP interaction with hemoprotei...
