Figure 4.
FIGURE 4. 0.95-Å ferrous nitrosyl myoglobin structure. A, stereo view of the nitrosyl heme and nearby side chains. The 2F[o] - F[c] electron density map for the heme group and amino acid side chains, contoured at 3.5 , is shown in brown mesh. The 2F[o] - F[c] electron density omit map for the NO group, contoured at 3.5 , is shown in blue mesh. The final refined model is represented as ball-and-stick colored by atom type. B, the same as A after rotation by 90° to give a "top" view.
