Structure of WT Tt H-NOX heme pocket.[4] The heme and key residues are shown in green. L144 and I75 are highlighted in blue.

Figure 2
A. Overlay of WT Tt (green) and I75F/L144F (purple) structures. The structures have been aligned along the C-terminal β-sheets since this alignment resulted in the hemes being approximately overlaid. A calculated distance difference matrix (Figure S2) shows that the C-terminal β-sheets change very little between the structures. B. Heme environments of WT and I75F/L144F highlighting changes in inter-atom distances and heme planarity and tilt.

Heme environment of the I75F/L144F mutant (purple) as compared to WT Tt H-NOX (green). A. Arrangement of F75 and F144 (blue) in the distal pocket. B. Changes in positioning of adjacent residue F78 upon introduction of the phenylalanine mutations.
