Reduced Molecular Flavins as Single-Electron Reductants after Photoexcitation
Flavoenzymes mediate a multitude of chemical reactions and are catalytically active both in different oxidation states and in covalent adducts with reagents.

Expanding the chemical space of flavins with pentacyclic architecture. [PDF]
Inspired by the prominent redox and optical properties of natural flavins, synthetic flavins have found broad applications in organic, photochemical, and biochemical research. Tailoring these properties of flavins, however, remains a challenge.

13 Pags.- 10 Figs.Iron (Fe) is abundant in soils but generally poorly soluble. Plants, with the exception of Graminaceae, take up Fe using an Fe(III)-chelate reductase coupled to an Fe(II) transporter.

Photo-CIDNP of Solvent-Exposed Flavins in Flavoproteins. [PDF]
Photochemically induced dynamic nuclear polarization (photo-CIDNP) is a hyperpolarization NMR technique that enhances the resonances of molecules involved in the formation of spin-correlated radical pairs.

Most flavin-dependent enzymes contain a dissociable flavin cofactor. We present a new approach for installing in vivo a covalent bond between a flavin cofactor and its host protein. By using a flavin transferase and carving a flavinylation motif in target proteins, we demonstrate that "dissociable" flavoproteins can be turned into covalent ...

Natural Flavins: Occurrence, Role, and Noncanonical Chemistry [PDF]
Flavoproteins are of key importance to all life on earth for both primary and secondary metabolism. Most flavin-dependent enzymes utilize flavin mononucleotide (FMN) or flavin adenine dinucleotide (FAD) as redox cofactor for single-electron and hydride ...

AbstractMethods for facile site‐selective modifications of proteins are in high demand. We have recently shown that a flavin transferase can be used for site‐specific covalent attachment of a chromo‐ and fluorogenic flavin (FMN) to any targeted protein. Although this Flavin‐tag method resulted in efficient labeling of proteins in vitro, labelling in E.

Flavin oxidation in flavin‐dependent N‐monooxygenases [PDF]
AbstractSiderophore A (SidA) from Aspergillus fumigatus is a flavin‐containing monooxygenase that hydroxylates ornithine (Orn) at the amino group of the side chain. Lysine (Lys) also binds to the active site of SidA; however, hydroxylation is not efficient and H2O2 is the main product.

Regulation of the Flavin Redox Potential by Flavin‐Binding Antibodies [PDF]
Single‐chain Fv antibody fragments binding different flavin forms [10‐(5'‐carboxybutyl‐)flavin (Flox) and 10‐(5'‐carboxybutyl)‐1,5‐dihydroflavin (Flred)] have been generated from an antibody phage‐display library to study how a protein environment regulates the redox potential, starting from a protein other than a natural flavoprotein.
