Force Spectroscopy of the Iron Atom in Heme Proteins
Northeastern University, Boston University, Argonne National Laboratory

Nuclear resonance vibrational spectroscopy (NRVS) selectively reveals the complete vibrational density of states (VDOS) of a Mössbauer probe nucleus within a protein. Frequency moments of the VDOS determine effective force constants for 57Fe at the active sites of cytochrome c (cyt c) and deoxymyoglobin (Mb).
