Incorporation of Tyrosine and Glutamine Residues into the Soluble Guanylate Cyclase Heme Distal Pocket Alters NO and O(2) Binding

Nitric oxide (NO) is the physiologically relevant activator of the mammalian hemoprotein soluble guanylate cyclase (sGC). The heme cofactor of α1β1 sGC has a high affinity for NO but has never been observed to form a complex with oxygen. Introduction of a key tyrosine residue in the sGC heme binding...
