The time scale of the quaternary structural changes in hemoglobin revealed using the transient grating technique.
The quaternary structural transition between the R and T states of human hemoglobin was investigated using the transient grating technique. The results presented herein reveal that the quaternary structural change accompanied by the R-T transition occurs within a few microseconds.
