Human serum albumin mutants complexed Mn(iii) protoporphyrin IX as superoxide dismutase mimics

Abstract

Genetically engineered human serum albumin (HSA) mutants complexed Mn(III) protoporphyrin IX (MnPP) in the haem pocket showed superoxide dismutase activity. Replacement of a proximal Tyr-161 by non-coordinating Leu caused a remarkable increase in enzyme activity.
