Pressure Effects on the Reactions of Heme Proteins

  • Chapter
High Pressure Chemistry and Biochemistry

Part of the book series: NATO ASI Series ((ASIC,volume 197))

Abstract

A short review is given of the effects of pressure on proteins that are relevant for studies on monomeric heme proteins. The coupling of spin equilibria and ligand binding processes is discussed for metmyoglobin. The difference between horse and sperm whale metmyoglobin points to the steric control of the protein on the ligand binding process. For imidazole a difference in compressibility is observed between the high-spin and the low-spin compound. In a final section the conformational change of horse cytochrome c at alkaline pH is discussed.
