The solution1H NMR spectrum of oxidized (met) mouse neuroglobin, metNgb, demonstrates that it is low-spin and hexacoordinate with strong spectral similarities to ferricytochromeb5. The axial ligands are identified as His(F8) and His(E7), with the latter exhibiting an unstrained Fe−His bond. The presence of two sets of resonances is shown to arise from equilibrium heme orientational isomers (∼2:1). The ligation of cyanide is shown to be extraordinarily slow with a factor ∼2 difference in rate for the two heme orientations. Not only is Ngb the first mamalian globin with equilibrium heme disorder, but the disorder also has additional functional consequences.
