== Publication Abstract from PubMed ==

Hemoproteins are ubiquitous in biology and are commonly involved in critical processes such as electron transfer, oxidative phosphorylation, and signal transduction. Both the protein environment and the heme cofactor contribute to generate the range of chemical properties needed for these diverse functions. Using the heme nitric oxide/oxygen binding (H-NOX) protein from the thermophilic bacterium Thermoanaerobacter tengcongensis, we have shown that heme electronic properties can be modulated by porphyrin distortion within the same protein scaffold without changing the heme ligation state or heme environment. The degree of heme distortion was found to be directly correlated to the electron density at the heme iron, as evidenced by dramatic changes in the heme redox potential and pK(a) of the distal ligand ((-)OH vs H(2)O). Protein-induced porphyrin distortion represents a new strategy to rationally tune the electronic properties of protein-bound porphyrins and could be used to engineer proteins with desired reactivity or functionality.
