Abstract excerpt
Pyridoxine-5'-phosphate oxidase catalyzes the oxidation of either the C4' alcohol group or amino group of the two substrates pyridoxine 5'-phosphate and pyridoxamine 5'-phosphate to an aldehyde, forming pyridoxal 5'-phosphate. A hydrogen atom is removed from C4' during the oxidation and a pair of electrons is transferred to tightly bound FMN. A new crystal form of the enzyme in complex with pyridoxal 5'-phosphate...
