Abstract
Hydrogen bonds ate believed to play an important role in the mediation of electron transfer processes in proteins. A porphyrin/depsipeptide/ p-benzoquinone molecule has been synthesized to help understand this r ole of hydrogen bond mediated electron transfer in proteins. The synth esis, room temperature folding conformation. and steady-state electron transfer are described. Copyright (C) 1996 Elsevier Science Ltd
