Biological dioxygen carriers

NMR, EPR, EXAFS, infrared, resonance Raman, and ultraviolet-visible spectroscopy should follow. Kinetic and thermodynamic information about the model complexes in comparison to that known for natural systems should be gathered. These concepts were updated in 1999 by Karlin, writing in reference 49. Model studies should provide reasonable bases for hypotheses about a biological structure and its reaction intermediates. Researchers should determine the model s competence in carrying out reactions that mimic metalloprotein chemistry. Using these methods and criteria, researchers may hope to exploit Cu-oxygen systems as practical dioxygen carriers or oxidation catalysts for laboratory and industrial purposes. [Pg.215]

Both cations play a stabilizing role in various biological structures. Calcium ions are necessary to link the 24-subunit aggregates of the dioxygen carrier hemocyanin of Limulus polyphemus into the native 48-subunit molecule.121 The divalent character of Ca2+ probably allows it to crosslink... [Pg.564]

The biological occurrence of hemerythrins (Hr in Figure 4.8), the third class of dioxygen carriers, is relatively rare, being restricted to the sipunculid family (nonsegmented worms), a few members of the annelid (segmented worm) fam-... [Pg.188]
