Example sentences for: heme-binding

How can you use “heme-binding” in a sentence? Here are some example sentences to help you improve your vocabulary:

One of these, the HNOB domain, contains the heme-binding site of the SGCs and defines a family of small-molecule binding domains exclusively occurring in animals and bacteria.
Though both the α and β subunits of SGCs are homologous throughout their entire length, only the β subunit contains the critical heme-binding residue.
The SGCs also contain a second globular domain situated in between the heme-binding and cyclase domains.
Those versions that lack the heme-binding histidine might either non-covalently interact with heme, as in the case of the SGC α-subunits, or bind some other unknown ligand.
However, neither direct comparisons, nor sequence-structure threading revealed any relationship with the two other well-characterized α-helical heme-binding domains, namely globin and cytochrome C. Hence, it is likely that the HNOB domain adopts a structure distinct from these domains.
