Abstract excerpt
The proposed FAD binding site of L-lysine N6-hydroxylase (EC 1.14.13.99) exhibits an unusual proline in a position where a highly conserved glycine is found in other FAD dependent hydroxylases. We have studied the role of this proline by mutating it to glycine in [P14G]aerA, which was expressed in Escherichia coli M15-2 and purified to homogeneity. The mutation has marked effects on the affinities of the...
