Abstract excerpt
The azomethine (Schiff base) linkage between the epsilon-amino group of active-site lysine 258 and the carbonyl moiety of enzyme-bound pyridoxal 5'-phosphate (PLP) normally exhibits absorbance maxima at ca. 360 (high-pH form) or ca. 430 nm (low-pH form). However, the absorbance maximum is shifted from 358 to 386 nm, a value which is similar to that of free PLP (lambda max = 388 nm), in a mutant form of...
