The physiologically active forms of the nonheme-iron, oxygen-transport protein hemerythrin have been studied by x-ray crystallographic techniques. At 3.9-A resolution, a difference electron-density map between the deoxy form and met form (methemerythrin) of the protein suggests only small differences in the binuclear iron complexes. The coordination of the iron atoms appears to be the same in both the deoxy and met forms, one iron of the complexes being pentacoordinate, the other iron being hexacoordinate. The iron atoms appear to be somewhat farther apart in the deoxy form. A 2.2-A resolution study of oxyhemerythrin shows that dioxygen binds to one iron atom--the pentacoordinate one in the met form of the protein, the same binding site found for azide in azidomethemerythrin.
