Nitric oxide (NO) is an important signaling molecule that is involved in a wide range of
physiological and pathological events in biology. Metal coordination chemistry, especially …

The nitrogen cycle is one of the most important biogeochemical cycles on Earth because
nitrogen is an essential nutrient for all life forms. To supplement natural nitrogen fixation …

Heme-copper oxidases (HCOs) are terminal enzymes on the mitochondrial or bacterial
respiratory electron transport chain, which utilize a unique heterobinuclear active site to …

Nitric oxide reductase (NOR) is an iron-containing enzyme that catalyzes the reduction of
nitric oxide (NO) to generate a major greenhouse gas, nitrous oxide (N2O). Here, we report …

Protein design provides a rigorous test of our knowledge about proteins and allows the
creation of novel enzymes for biotechnological applications. Whereas progress has been …

High-spin non-heme iron–nitrosyls are of direct interest to both the chemical and biological
communities as these species exhibit interesting chemical properties and act as direct …

This review summarizes recent developments in the investigation of the electronic
structures, spectroscopic properties, and reactivities of ferrous and ferric heme-nitrosyls and …

The metallobiochemistry underlying the formation of the inorganic N–N-bond-containing
molecules nitrous oxide (N2O), dinitrogen (N2), and hydrazine (N2H4) is essential to the …

Heme–copper oxidases (HCO), nitric oxide reductases (NOR), and sulfite reductases (SiR)
catalyze the multi-electron and multi-proton reductions of O2, NO, and SO32−, respectively …

The oxides of nitrogen (chiefly NO, NO3−, NO2− and N2O) are key components of the
natural nitrogen cycle and are intermediates in a range of processes of enormous biological …
