While the flavohemoglobin has a role in counteracting nitric oxide, the functions of the cytochromes (gCYTb5s) are unknown. In this study, the protein level and cellular localization of three gCYTB5 isotypes (gCYTb5-I, II and III) and flavohemoglobin were examined… more Full Text: THE EFFECT OF NITROSATIVE STRESS ON HEME PROTEIN EXPRESSION AND LOCALIZATION IN GIARDIA INTESTINALIS A Thesis Submitted to the Committee on Graduate Studies in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Faculty …
