Characterisation of the flavin adenine dinucleotide binding region in Myxococcus xanthus protoporphyrinogen oxidase [PDF]
This dissertation focuses on protoporphyrinogen oxidase (PPOX), the penultimate enzyme in the haem biosynthetic pathway. Partial defects in PPOX result in variegate porphyria, an autosomal dominant disorder.

Disorders of flavin adenine dinucleotide metabolism: MADD and related deficiencies [PDF]
Multiple acyl-coenzyme A dehydrogenase deficiency (MADD), or glutaric aciduria type II (GAII), is a group of clinically heterogeneous disorders caused by mutations in electron transfer flavoprotein (ETF) and ETF-ubiquinone oxidoreductase (ETFQO) – the ...

Flavin Catalysts in Organic Synthesis
Flavins and their congeners are potent catalysts for organic synthesis inspired by enzymatic transformations. In addition to catalysis in the flavin ground state via covalent intermediates, the excited singlet and triplet states unlock applications including photooxidation, photoreduction, and energy transfer via sensitization.

Biophysical characterization of folded state type II luciferase‐like monooxygenase
We noticed that the Priestia megaterium genome contains five Luciferase‐like monooxygenase (LLM) encoding genes, however, their functions are unknown. The objective of this work was to characterize the biophysical properties of the recombinant LLM2 from ...

REVERSIBLE ENZYMATIC SYNTHESIS OF FLAVIN-ADENINE DINUCLEOTIDE
An enzyme has been partially purified from brewer's yeast which catalyzes the reversible reaction between riboflavin phosphate and adenosine triphosphate (ATP) on the one hand and flavin-adenine dinucleotide (FAD) and inorganic pyrophosphate on the other in the presence of magnesium ions.

Isolation and identification of flavin adenine dinucleotide. II. Studies on purification.
The mycelium obtained by the culture of Eremothecium ashbyii was found to be a suitable material for preparing FAD. Purification of FAD has so far been effected through its silver or barium salt by many workers. In the present study, however, it was found that the purification is effectively achieved by repeating the process of reducing crude FAD with ...
