Abstract excerpt
Serine hydroxymethyltransferase purified from rabbit liver cytosol has at least two Asn residues (Asn(5) and Asn(220)) that are 67 and 30% deamidated, respectively. Asn(5) is deamidated equally to Asp and isoAsp, while Asn(220) is deamidated only to isoAsp. To determine the effect of these Asn deamidations on enzyme activity and stability a recombinant rabbit liver cytosolic serine hydroxymethyltransferase was...
