Figure 3
Stick models of the heme group with coordinating histidine residues from all subunits of horse hemoglobin after 3 and 10 fs as an example. The left (3 fs) and central (10 fs) panels show the 2F_o − F_c electron-density maps at 1.5σ, carve = 1.6. The right panel shows the overlaid structures with F_o(3 fs) − F_o(10 fs) electron-density maps at 3.0σ, carve = 1.8.
