Kinetic Mechanisms of the Oxygenase from a Two-component Enzyme, p-Hydroxyphenylacetate 3-Hydroxylase from Acinetobacter baumannii
21 Apr 2006
Abstract excerpt
p-Hydroxyphenylacetate hydroxylase (HPAH) from Acinetobacter baumannii catalyzes the hydroxylation of p-hydroxyphenylacetate (HPA) to form 3,4-dihydroxyphenylacetate (DHPA). The enzyme system is composed of two proteins: an FMN reductase (C1) and an oxygenase that uses FMNH- (C2). We report detailed transient kinetics studies at 4 degrees C of the reaction mechanism of C2.C2 binds rapidly and tightly to reduced...
