On the interaction of small molecules with hemoproteins: Sperm whale myoglobin
The spin label TEMPO does not show a binding to myoglobin molecule in solution. This is probably due to the fact that this protein does not have a hydrophobic pocket large enough to accommodate the TEMPO molecule. In the crystal the spin label is bound and two kinds of spectra are observed: one isot...
