I am expressing one enzyme, heme oxygenase 1 (HO1). The product I care about is the small molecule that enzyme makes: biliverdin IXα. Biliverdin is a hyperspectral reporter pigment. HO1 opens a heme ring and releases biliverdin IXα, Fe²⁺, and CO. I am encoding the enzyme, because the pigment is not a gene.</description><generator>Hugo</generator><language>en</language><atom:link href="https://pages.htgaa.org/2026b/clinton-monteiro/week-2/index.xml" rel="self" type="application/rss+xml"/></channel></rss>
