-
upon coimmobilization of cytochrome cd1 nitrite reductase Mhcd1 and cytochrome c552 on silver electrodes coated with self-assembled monolayers, cytochrome c552 retains its native properties, while the redox potential of apparently intact Mhcd1 undergoes an about 150 mV negative shift upon adsorption. Neither of the immobilization strategies results in an active Mhcd1

study on use of stabilized hemoglobin as alternative to red cells. Cross-linked hemoglobin bis-tetramers with good oxygen delivery potential have 3fold enhanced nitrite reductase activity, compared to native protein and cross-linked tetramers. Conjugation of four polyethylene glocol chains to the bis-tetramer at each beta-Cys-93 produces a material with additionallly 2.5fold increased nitrite reductase activity while retaining cooperativity
