Figure 3. a: F[o]-F[c] omit electron density map contoured at 3 and final model showing a side view of the heme environment in hh Mb(EtNO). The dashed yellow line represents a 2.7 Å distance between the N^ atom of the distal His64 residue and the O atom of the nitroso group. b: View of the heme environment showing the off-axis tilt of the nitrosoethane ligand. The view is along the nitrosoethane CNO plane. c: Top view of the heme environment in hh Mb(EtNO). The EtNO ligand is on the side of the porphyrin ring facing the viewer.
