Abstract excerpt
Cytochrome P-450cam of Pseudomonas putida is a prototype of various eukaryotic cytochrome P-450 molecules. Arg-112 located on the surface of this protein is highly conserved among various other cytochromes P-450. In this study, we constructed mutant genes for P-450cam in which Arg-112 was replaced by Gln or Glu, expressed them in Escherichia coli and purified the mutant proteins. Their enzymic activities were...
