Abstract excerpt
Erv2p is a small, dimeric FAD-dependent sulfhydryl oxidase that generates disulfide bonds in the lumen of the endoplasmic reticulum. Mutagenic and structural studies suggest that Erv2p uses an internal thiol-transfer relay between the FAD-proximal active site cysteine pair (Cys121-Cys124) and a second cysteine pair (Cys176-Cys178) located in a flexible, substrate-accessible C-terminal tail of the adjacent dimer...
