The catalytic reaction occurs at a high-spin (5-coordinated) heme that is located at a pentahemic subunit of 61 kDa which is strongly bound to its physiological electron donor, a smaller hydrophobic polypeptide tetrahemic of 19 kDa, composed of 4 c-types hemes; in vitro, the protein complexes associate each other forming huge aggregates (min. 890 kDa). | The catalytic reaction occurs at a high-spin (5-coordinated) heme that is located at a pentahemic subunit of 61 kDa which is strongly bound to its physiological electron donor, a smaller hydrophobic polypeptide tetrahemic of 19 kDa, composed of 4 c-types hemes; in vitro, the protein complexes associate each other forming huge aggregates (min. 890 kDa). | ||
