  Friebe et al., 1996, EMBO Journal, 15(24): 6863-6868 and back refs cited in their paper. They have studied the potentiation by YC-1 of CO activated sGC. In the absence of YC-1, they report 3 fold stimulation of GC by CO, with 218 +- 11 nmol/min/mg of cGMP. Vmax / Km increased by 100 X.

CO
  Ingi et al., J Neurosci., 1996, 16(18):5621-5628, report the production rates of heme precursors and metabolites. The rate reported for CO from heme is 2.9 pmol/mg protein over 6 hr. Their results indicate high HO activity in brain (along with significant levels of heme) at around 280pmol of bilirubin/mg/min. Montellano PRO, Curr. Opin. in Chem. Biol, 2000,4:221-227 and refs cited in his paper were also studied initially. Km for free heme is around 3.8 +/- 0.5 uM.(Bonkovsky et al., 1990, 189(1):155-166)
