Pseudoazurin

This copper-containing protein acts as an electron transfer protein.The azurin part of the name comes from the intense blue colour of this protein.

Assessment Item - Heme proteins

Answer the associated questions on Bb. This is your workshop assessment. In this section, we will look at 3 heme-containing proteins. The three proteins and their functions are described below. Your task is to use the structures, extra information given in the question on Blackboard and your knowledge of transition metal chemistry to match the structures with the correct protein, making sure that you justify your reasoning.

Protein Function Associated reaction
Catalase Hydrogen peroxide disproportionation 2 H2O2 → 2 H2O + O2
Cytochrome c (cyt c) Electron transfer Fe(II)-cyt c ⇌ Fe(III)-cyt c + e-
Myoglobin (Mb) Reversible O2 binding in muscle Mb + O2 ⇌ MbO2
