Abstract:

Mutating the histidine 64 to valine, the gene of Neuroglobin(Ngb) mutant H64V was constructed and its protein was expressed and purified. This mutation changed the coordination geometry of neuroglobin from hexa- to penta-coordinated. The interaction of neuroglobin mutant H64V with azide anion() was investigated by spectroscopy. UV-Vis absorbance spectra showed that the binding of mutant H64V to induced the change of the Soret-band absorption peak from 406 nm to 418 nm. Fluorescence spectra indicated that the fluorescence of mutant H64V was quenched by through static quenching mechanism. The binding equilibrium dissociation constant and thermodynamic parameters between mutant H64V and were calculated. In addition, the effects of different anions on their binding were studied, the results showed that the anions reduced the binding ability between mutant H64V and azide anion.

Key words: Neuroglobin, Mutant H64V, Azide anion, Spectroscopy
