Radiolysis of myoglobin concentrated gels by protons: specific changes in secondary structure and production of carbon monoxide
Abstract While particle therapy has been used for decades for cancer treatment, there is still a lack of information on the molecular mechanisms of biomolecules radiolysis by accelerated ions. Here, we examine the effects of accelerated protons on highly concentrated native myoglobin, by means of Fo...
