The reaction of peroxides with peroxidases oxidizes the heme iron from Fe(III) to Fe(IV)=O and a porphyrin or aromatic side chain to a cationic radical. X-ray-generated hydrated electrons rapidly reduce Fe(IV), thereby requiring very short exposures

Biosynthesis of the tryptophan tryptophylquinone (TTQ) cofactor activates the enzyme methylamine dehydrogenase. The diheme enzyme MauG catalyzes O-atom insertion and cross-linking of two Trp residues to complete TTQ synthesis. Solution optical and M

High-temperature molecular dynamics (MD) has been used to assess if MD can be employed as a useful tool for probing the structural basis for enhanced stability in thermal stable cytochromes P450. CYP119, the most thermal stable P450 known, unfolds mo

DevS is one of the two sensing kinases responsible for DevR activation and the subsequent entry of Mycobacterium tuberculosis into dormancy. Full length wild-type DevS forms a stable oxy-ferrous complex. The DevS autooxidation rates are extremely low

Cytochrome c peroxidase (CCP) and ascorbate peroxidase (APX) have very similar structures, and yet neither CCP nor APX exhibits each other's activities with respect to reducing substrates. APX has a unique substrate binding site near the heme propion

Cytochrome P450cin (CYP176A1) is a bacterial P450 isolated from Citrobacter braakii that catalyzes the hydroxylation of cineole to (S)-6β-hydroxycineole. This initiates the biodegradation of cineole, enabling C. braakii to live on cineole as its sol

Cytochrome P450 reductase, which delivers electrons from NADPH to microsomal P450s, consists of a single polypeptide that contains both FAD and FMN. The bacterial P450cin utilizes a similar electron transport system except the FAD/FMN reductase consi

Heme oxygenases have an increased binding affinity for O2 relative to CO. Such discrimination is critical to the function of HO enzymes because one of the main products of heme catabolism is CO. Kinetic studies of mammalian and bacterial HO proteins

Cytochrome P450cin catalyzes the monooxygenation of 1,8-cineole, which is structurally very similar to D-camphor, the substrate for the most thoroughly investigated cytochrome P450, cytochrome P450cam. Both 1,8-cineole and D-camphor are C-10 monoterp

This paper reports on the application of the molecular Lego approach to P450 enzymes. Protein domains are used as catalytic (P450 BM3 haem domain and human P450 2E1) or electron transfer (flavodoxin and P450 BM3 reductase) modules. The objectives are
