Role of residues on the proximal side of the heme in catalase HPII of Escherichia coli
Through site-directed mutagenesism the roles of the amino acids H392, H395, D197, Q419 in heme conversion were studied. H392 mutants which disable the His-Tyr bond contain only heme b as their prosthetic group, and lose specific activity, thermostability and sensitivity to the inhibitors NaCN, NaN3...
