Figure 3.
Fig. 3. Stereoview of heme I in all three redox forms. The reduced form is blue; the oxidized form at pH 7.6 is yellow; the oxidized form at pH 4.0 is red. Both in the reduced and oxidized forms at pH 7.6, propionate A displays two alternative side chain conformations. The figure was drawn with Molscript (44) and Raster3D (45).
