Published in 2019 at "Analytical biochemistry"

DOI: 10.1016/j.ab.2019.02.021

Abstract: Accumulating evidence suggests a new role for cellular heme as a signalling molecule, in which interactions with target proteins are more transient than found with traditionally-defined hemoproteins. To study this role, a precise method is… read more here.
