摘要

Top model: Heme-copper oxidase (HCO) contains a histidine-tyrosine cross-link in its heme a3/Cu B oxygen reduction center. A functional model of HCO was obtained through the genetic incorporation of the unnatural amino acid imiTyr, which mimics the Tyr-His cross-link, and of the Cu B site into myoglobin (see picture). Like HCO, this small soluble protein exhibits selective O 2-reduction activity while generating little reactive oxygen species.
