Heme oxygenase (HO) catalyzes heme degradation using electrons supplied by NADPH-cytochrome P450 oxidoreductase (CPR). Electrons from NADPH flow first to FAD, then to FMN, and finally to the heme in the redox partner. Previous biophysical analyses suggest the presence of a dynamic equilibrium between the open and the closed forms of CPR. We previously demonstrated that the open-form stabilized CPR (ΔTGEE) is tightly bound to heme-HO-1, whereas the reduction in heme-HO-1 coupled with ΔTGEE is con ...[more]
