Thermodynamics and Kinetics of Ligand Photodissociation in Heme Proteins and Formation of DNA i-Motif

Heme proteins carry out a diverse array of functions in vivo while maintaining a well-conserved 3-over-3 α-helical structure. Human hemoglobin (Hb) is well-known for its oxygen transport function. Type 1 non-symbiotic hemoglobins (nsHb1) in plants and bacterial flavohemoglobins (fHb) from a variety...
