Abstract
The three-dimensional structure of sperm whale myoglobin His64(E7)-->Val,Thr67(E10)-->Arg double mutant has been studied by X-ray crystallography at 1.6 A resolution, and refined to a crystallographic R-factor of 0.197. The Arg67(E10) side chain is extended in the direction of the ligand binding site, and its NH1 atom is at a distance of 3.11 A from the NH1 atom of Arg45(CD3), which is also pointing towards the distal site. Both are kept in this position by hydrogen bonding and electrostatic interactions with a solvent sulfate ion, located amongst the two, on the protein surface. No liganded water molecule is present at the sixth coordination position of the Fe(III) heme.

Full text Abstract
Figure 1.
Fig, 1 Dependence of r -) on equilibrium concentration of reagents ([Mb*] + [N3-]; see Eqn, 1), as obtained by temperature ump experiments at 25°C, for N~- binding to the His(ET)Va/and HisfET)Val.Th(ElO)Arg mutants of sperm whale Mb (panel A and panel B, respectively). Dependence of the apparent rate constant (kob,) on the concentration of reagents ([Mb ÷] - [N~-]), as obtained by stopped-flow experiments at 20°C, for N~- binding to and wild-type whale Mb's (panel ; circles and squares, respective- ly), Straigl~t lines are linear regressions of data points. Data were ob- tained at Mb concentration = 4.0 × 10 -6 M in 0,1 M phosphae buffer, pH 7.0.

Stereo view of the distal site environment, seen from the solvent side of the His(E7)VaI-Thr(ElO)Arg double mutant of sperm whale Mb as model-built on he crystal structure of the sperm whale Mb:Na- adduct, refined at 1.9 ,~, resolution (M, Bolognesi, personal communication). The E helix is on the right end side of the picture; the N3- molecule is shown between the home and the side chain of Arg ~7 (El0),
