Figure 2.
Electron density maps around the heme at DosS GAF-A. A, water molecule interacts with the heme iron at the distal position in the native structure. B, ferrous iron is five coordinated in the reduced form of GAF-A. C, upon air exposure, a water molecule ligands the heme iron at the distal position. D, cyanide interacts with the heme at the distal position, and Tyr-171 guides the cyanide interaction. The 2F[o]-F[c] electron density maps were contoured at the 1.5 σ level.
