TABLE 1.
pKa values determined for the alkaline transition in control and nitro-Tyr-97- and nitro-Tyr-74-cytochrome c by NMR and optical spectroscopy
The data were fitted to the Henderson-Hasselbalch function to obtain the pKa values. NMR determinations were performed at 318 K and optical determinations at 298 K.
