Abstract excerpt
The mammalian mitochondrial NADP-dependent isocitrate dehydrogenase is a citric acid cycle enzyme and an important contributor to cellular defense against oxidative stress. The Mn(2+)-isocitrate complex of the porcine enzyme was recently crystallized; its structure indicates that Ser(95), Asn(97), and Thr(78) are within hydrogen-bonding distance of the gamma-carboxylate of enzyme-bound isocitrate. We used...
