Observation of heme transfer from cytochrome b5 to DNA aptamer.

Spectrochim. Acta. A. Mol. Biomol. Spectrosc. 96 , 365-9, (2012)

Heme transfer is commonly observed from one heme protein to the other such as from cytochrome b(5) (cyt b(5)) to apo-myoglobin. In this study, instead of to another heme protein, we observed the heme ...
