Here we report the de novo design and NMR structure of a four-helical bundle di-iron protein
with phenol oxidase activity. The introduction of the cofactor-binding and phenol-binding
sites required the incorporation of residues that were detrimental to the free energy of folding
of the protein. Sufficient stability was, however, obtained by optimizing the sequence of a
loop distant from the active site.
