Abstract excerpt
The redox-active dithiol/disulfide C315-Xaa-Xaa-C318 center has been implicated in the regulation of the human mitochondrial branched chain aminotransferase isozyme (hBCATm) [Conway, M. E., Yennawar, N., Wallin, R., Poole, L. B., and Hutson, S. M. (2002) Biochemistry 41, 9070-9078]. To explore further the mechanistic details of this CXXC center, mutants of the Cys residues at positions 315 and 318 of hBCATm were...
