The chemistry of nitric oxide (NO) has taken on new dimensions since the discovery, about a decade ago, of a myriad of biological events that NO participates in. Many of the foundations of metal-NO chemistry were laid out earlier by inorganic chemists and biochemists investigating the structures and
## Abstract Nitrophorins (NPs) comprise a unique class of heme proteins used by the bloodβsucking insect __Rhodnius prolixus__ to deliver the signaling gas molecule NO into the blood vessel of a host during feeding. Upon NO release, histamine can be scavenged by coordination to the heme iron. Altho
