We focus on a variant of the heme protein, i.e., the recently discovered neuroglobin (NHb) and cytoglobin (CHb), looking for clues with regard to possible applications in polymer electrolyte fuel cells (PEFCs), in a quest to design nanomaterials that would replace the expensive platinum catalysts us...
