Self-association of sperm whale metmyoglobin
The solution behavior of sperm whale metmyoglobin in 0.15 I phosphate-chloride buffer, pH 7.2, has been examined by sedimentation equilibrium, frontal gel chromatography, and sedimentation velocity. Results obtained from all three studies are shown to be consistent with a self-association model in w...

Summary: | The solution behavior of sperm whale metmyoglobin in 0.15 I phosphate-chloride buffer, pH 7.2, has been examined by sedimentation equilibrium, frontal gel chromatography, and sedimentation velocity. Results obtained from all three studies are shown to be consistent with a self-association model in which dimerization of the myoglobin is governed by an association equilibrium constant of 0.068 liter/g (580 m-1) at 20 °C. |
