Dioxygen-dependent Heme Enzymes, Hardback Book

Dioxygen-dependent Heme Enzymes Hardback

Edited by Masao (Tohoku University, Japan) Ikeda-Saito, Emma (University of Bristol, UK) Raven

Part of the Metallobiology series

Hardback

Description

Aerobic organisms have evolved to utilise the intrinsic oxidising power of oxygen from the atmosphere.

This so-called 'activation' of oxygen is often catalysed by a heme-containing enzyme.

This book highlights the many and varied catalytic activities of O2-dependent heme–iron enzymes, including monoxygenases and cytochrome P450, dioxygenases, oxidases and model heme systems. Dioxygen-dependent Heme Enzymes will be a useful resource for postgraduate students and researchers in biochemistry and metallobiology working in, or moving into, research areas involving heme proteins.
