Structural flexibility of the nicotinamide group of NADH in butanol dehydrogenase YqdH from Fusobacterium nucleatum. [PDF]
PLoS ONEButanol dehydrogenases (BDHs) are NAD(P)H-dependent oxidoreductases that catalyze the reversible conversion of butanol to butyraldehyde. These enzymes play essential roles in microbial butanol fermentation and show significant potential for biofuel ...

A structure-based approach for detection of thiol oxidoreductases and their catalytic redox-active cysteine residues. [PDF]
PLoS Computational Biology, 2009 Cysteine (Cys) residues often play critical roles in proteins, for example, in the formation of structural disulfide bonds, metal binding, targeting proteins to the membranes, and various catalytic functions.

Reconstructing a Flavodoxin Oxidoreductase with Early Amino Acids [PDF]
International Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2013 Primitive proteins are proposed to have utilized organic cofactors more frequently than transition metals in redox reactions. Thus, an experimental validation on whether a protein constituted solely by early amino acids and an organic cofactor can perform electron transfer activity is an urgent challenge.

Biochimica et Biophysica Acta (BBA) - Bioenergetics, 2023 Pyruvate:quinone oxidoreductases (PQOs) catalyse the oxidative decarboxylation of pyruvate to acetate and concomitant reduction of quinone to quinol with the release of CO2. They are thiamine pyrophosphate (TPP) and flavin-adenine dinucleotide (FAD) containing enzymes, which interact with the membrane in a monotopic way.

Structure of Alcohol Oxidase from Pichia pastoris by Cryo-Electron Microscopy. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2016 The first step in methanol metabolism in methylotrophic yeasts, the oxidation of methanol and higher alcohols with molecular oxygen to formaldehyde and hydrogen peroxide, is catalysed by alcohol oxidase (AOX), a 600-kDa homo-octamer containing eight FAD ...

Mutations in NADH:ubiquinone oxidoreductase of Escherichia coli affect growth on mixed amino acids [PDF]
Journal of Bacteriology, 1994 We isolated and characterized mutants defective in nuo, encoding NADH dehydrogenase I, the multisubunit complex homologous to eucaryotic mitochondrial complex I. By Southern hybridization and/or sequence analysis, we characterized three distinct mutations: a polar insertion designated nuoG::Tn10-1, a nonpolar insertion designated nuoF::Km-1, and a ...

Reduction of Protein Bound Methionine Sulfoxide by a Periplasmic Dimethyl Sulfoxide Reductase
Antioxidants, 2020 In proteins, methionine (Met) can be oxidized into Met sulfoxide (MetO). The ubiquitous methionine sulfoxide reductases (Msr) A and B are thiol-oxidoreductases reducing MetO.
