Abstract excerpt
The pressure stability of the thermophilic CYP119 from Sulfolobus solfataricus and its active-site Thr213 and Thr214 mutants was investigated. At 20 degrees C and pH 6.5, the protein undergoes a reversible P450-to-P420 inactivation with a midpoint at 380 MPa and a reaction volume change of -28 mL/mol. The volume of activation of the process was -9.5 mL/mol. The inactivation transition was retarded, and the...
