Figure 2.
Superimposition of haem --HO (green; Sugishima et al., 2003[triangle]), CN^[minus sign] --haem --HO (yellow, pH 6.8) and CN^[minus sign] --haem --HO (blue, pH 9.7). Except for the proximal histidine, only the C^[alpha] traces are shown for clarity. The crystal structures of CN^[minus sign] --haem --HO at pH 6.8 and pH 9.7 were superimposed on the structure of haem --HO so as to minimize the r.m.s. deviations of C^[alpha] atoms. Following the distal helix is the G-helix, which contains the basic residues (Lys179 and Arg183) involved in the salt bridges to haem propionates.
