Hemoproteins on their metal: We report a novel strategy for the reconstitution of hemoproteins with non‐natural metal complexes; simple addition of manganese and ruthenium porphyrin to E. coli cells immediately prior to homogenization yields the reconstituted proteins. We believe that this simple approach could become a standard reconstitution method for hemoproteins.
