Abstract excerpt
p-Hydroxybenzoate hydroxylase is extensively studied as a model for single-component flavoprotein monooxygenases. It catalyzes a reaction in two parts: (1) reduction of the FAD in the enzyme by NADPH in response to binding of p-hydroxybenzoate to the enzyme and (2) oxidation of reduced FAD with oxygen in an environment free from solvent to form a hydroperoxide, which then reacts with p-hydroxybenzoate to form an...
