Extract

The relationship between functional properties of haem proteins, particularly ligand binding and Bohr effect, and associated variations of the tertiary and quaternary structures is one of the main objectives of haem protein research. In this context one aims to get detailed knowledge of the coupling mechanisms which are involved in the transduction of structural changes from the protein to the functional haem group along distinct pathways.
