Femtosecond spectroscopy studies of recombinant hemoglobin I of the clam Lucina pectinata (Gmelin, 1791)
(2011)
Lucina pectinata (Gmelin, 1791) is a clam that can be found in sulfide-rich muds in the
coastal mangroves of the southwest coast of Puerto Rico. It contains three different
hemoglobins in the gill tissue, hemoglobin I, ...
Hemoglobin I from Lucina pectinata: A model for hydrogen sulfide reactivity within hemeproteins
(2009)
The hemoglobin I (HbI) from the clam Lucina pectinata is an intriguing hemeprotein that binds and transports H2S to chemoautotrophic bacteria to maintain a symbiotic relationship and to protect the mollusk from H2S toxicity. ...
New crystallographic structures of Oxy-HbII-III and CN-HbII-III forms from Lucina pectinata
(2011)
The clam Lucina pectinata is found in the sulfide-rich southwest coastal sediments of La Parguera, Puerto Rico in the Caribbean Sea. This bivalve mollusk has developed a chemoautotrophic symbiotic relation with the bacteria ...
