Abstract excerpt
Plant alpha dioxygenases (PADOX) convert fatty acids to 2-hydroperoxy products that are important in plant signaling pathways. The PADOX amino-terminal domain is distinct from that in other myeloperoxidase-family hemoproteins, and the positional specificity and prosthetic group of PADOX distinguish them from the non-heme iron plant lipoxygenases. The constraints of the PADOX active site on potential substrates...
