Abstract excerpt
The two active sites in ornithine decarboxylase (ODC) are formed at the dimer interface with Lys-69 and Cys-360 contributing to each active site from opposite monomers [Tobias, K. E., & Kahana, C. (1993) Biochemistry 32, 5842-5847]. To gain insight into the organization of the substrate binding site and the nature of the dimer interface, analysis of ornithine decarboxylase from two parasitic protozoa, Trypanosoma...
