Popis: Iron is a constituent of the active sites of many important proteins including hemoglobin and myoglobin, the cytochromes, iron-sulfur proteins, nitrogenase and others. Because of the importance of the iron-containing proteins to the physiology of a wide variety of organisms, their physical and electronic structures have been extensively studied. Since the iron atom or atoms often play a central role in the function of the protein, Mossbauer spectroscopy is one of the most important tools in these studies.
