This research, jointly supported by the Physical Chemistry                      Program and the Biophysics Program, develops the theory and                     application of X-ray absorption spectroscopy directed to the                    structural characterization of selected metalloproteins. These                  studies will contribute to the elucidation of the general                       principles underlying the structure-function relationships of                   metal centers with the associated protein.                                                                                                                      The coordination and the electronic environment of the metal                    atoms in metalloproteins will be probed as a function of redox                  state and of substrate and inhibitor binding. In addition, a                    number of high-valent heme-iron protein systems will be                         characterized in order to define the range of structures that                   occur in states that have iron-oxo units and related                            compositions. Theoretical and experimental work will be                         performed to enhance the ability to extract structural                          information from X-ray absorption edge spectroscopic studies.
