| Abstract | Mammalian heme oxygenase, HO, possesses catalytically implicated distal ordered water molecules within an extended H-bond network, with one of the ordered water molecules (#1) providing a bridge between the iron-coordinated ligand and the catalytically critical Asp140, that, in turn, serves as an acceptor for the Tyr58 OH H-bond. The degree of H-bonding by the ligated water molecule and the coupling of this water molecule to the H-bond network are of current interest and are herein investigated by 1H NMR. 2D NMR allowed sufficient assignments to provide both the H-bond strength and hyperfine shifts, the latter of which were used to quantify the magnetic anisotropy in both the ferric high-spin aquo and low-spin hydroxo complexes. The anisotropy in the aquo complex indicates that the H-bond donation to water #1 is marginally stronger than in a bacterial HO, while the anisotropy for the hydroxo complex reveals a conventional (dxz, dyz)1 ground state indicative of only moderate to weak H-bond acceptance by the ligated hydroxide. Mapping out the changes of the H-bond strengths in the network during the ligated water → hydroxide conversion by correcting for the effects of magnetic anisotropy, reveals a very substantial change in H-bond strength for Tyr58 OH, and lesser effects on nearby H-bonds. The effect of pH on the H-bonding network in human HO is much larger and transmitted much further from the iron than in a pathogenic bacterial HO. The implications for the HO mechanism of the H-bond of Tyr58 to Asp140 are discussed. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
