Structure of cytochrome P450eryF: substrate, inhibitors, and model compounds bound in the active site.

Abstract excerpt

Much of our understanding of P450 reaction mechanisms derives from studies on P450cam, a bacterial camphor hydroxylase. P450cam has served as the model for understanding detailed structure/function relationships in mammalian P450 enzymes, which have not proved amenable to x-ray crystallographic techniques. To expand and improve the P450 model, we solved the structure of P450eryF, a cytochrome P450 involved in...
