Site Directed Mutagenesis of Amino Acid Residues at the Active Site of Mouse Aldehyde Oxidase AOX1
Mouse aldehyde oxidase (mAOX1) forms a homodimer and belongs to the xanthine oxidase family of molybdoenzymes which are characterized by an essential equatorial sulfur ligand coordinated to the molybdenum atom. In general, mammalian AOs are characterized by broad substrate specificity and an yet obscure physiological function. To define the physiological substrates and the enzymatic characteris...
متن کاملLysine residues involved in the active site
Egg-white avidin was treated with 1 -fluoro-2,4-dinitrobenzene. Modification of an average of one lysine residue per avidin subunit caused the complete loss of biotin binding. Tryptic peptides obtained from the 2,4-dinitrophenylated avidin were fractionated by reversed-phase h.p.l.c. Three peptides contained the 2,4-dinitrophenyl group. Amino acid analysis revealed that lysine residues 45, 94 a...
متن کاملthe effect of functional/notional approach on the proficiency level of efl learners and its evaluation through functional test
in fact, this study focused on the following questions: 1. is there any difference between the effect of functional/notional approach and the structural approaches to language teaching on the proficiency test of efl learners? 2. can a rather innovative language test referred to as "functional test" ge devised so so to measure the proficiency test of efl learners, and thus be as much reliable an...
15 صفحه اولThe functional role of the key residues in the active site of peroxidases.
Peroxidases are haem-containing enzymes which catalyse the reduction of hydrogen peroxide by different organic substrates. Plant, fungal and bacterial peroxidases are evolutionarily related and constitute the plant peroxidase superfamily, which can be divided into three structural classes. Class I, of prokaryotic origin, includes cytochrome c peroxidase (CCP); class I1 contains secretory fungal...
متن کاملFunctional studies of Plasmodium falciparum dipeptidyl aminopeptidase I using small molecule inhibitors and active site probes.
The widespread resistance of malaria parasites to all affordable drugs has made the identification of new targets urgent. Dipeptidyl aminopeptidases (DPAPs) represent potentially valuable new targets that are involved in hemoglobin degradation (DPAP1) and parasite egress (DPAP3). Here we use activity-based probes to demonstrate that specific inhibition of DPAP1 by a small molecule results in th...
