Abstract excerpt
The crystal structure of the enzyme-substrate complex of p-hydroxybenzoate hydroxylase from Pseudomonas fluorescens shows that the hydroxyl group of 4-hydroxybenzoate interacts with the side chain of Tyr201, which is in close contact with the side chain of Tyr385. The role of this hydrogen bonding network in substrate activation was studied by kinetic and spectral analysis of Tyr-->Phe mutant enzymes. The...
