Nitric oxide interaction with cytochrome c′ and its relevance to guanylate cyclase. Why does the iron histidine bond break?
Soluble guanylate cyclase (sGC), the mammalian receptor for nitric oxide (NO), is a heme protein with a histidine as the proximal ligand. Formation of a five-coordinate heme-NO complex with the associated Fe-His bond cleavage is believed to trigger a conformational change that activates the enzyme a...
