Multiheme cytochrome constitutes a widespread class of proteins with essential functions in electron transfer and enzymatic catalysis. Their functional properties are in part determined by the relative arrangement of multiple heme cofactors. Understanding the significance of these motifs is crucial for the elucidation of the highly optimized properties of multiheme cytochromes c, but their spectroscopic investigation is often restricted by the presence of a large number and efficient coupling of the individual centers. These attractive features have prompted us to investigate on the biomimetic model of multi-heme cytochromes as a part of our ongoing research.1-3 This talk will highlights some of our recent results.
