Abstract excerpt
Mutants of the amine oxidase from Aspergillus niger were tested to ascertain the need for molecular oxygen across the family of mutant enzymes. Two of the variants were selected, namely D5 and D11, which had 5 and 10 mutations, respectively, versus the wild type. Experimental observations showed a difference in oxygen requirements between variants. Molecular dynamics simulations were then used to give a potential...
