Redox Titration of Flavoproteins: An Overview
Redox titration of flavoproteins allows to detect and analyze (1) the determinants of the stabilization of individual redox forms of the flavin by the protein; (2) the binding of the redox-active cofactor to the protein; (3) the effects of other ...

Flavoprotein oxidases: classification and applications [PDF]
This review provides an overview of oxidases that utilise a flavin cofactor for catalysis. This class of oxidative flavoenzymes has shown to harbour a large number of biotechnologically interesting enzymes. Applications range from their use as biocatalysts for the synthesis of pharmaceutical compounds to the integration in biosensors.

3D imaging of the mitochondrial redox state of rat hearts under normal and fasting conditions [PDF]
The heart requires continuous ATP availability that is generated in the mitochondria. Although studies using the cell culture and perfused organ models have been carried out to investigate the biochemistry in the mitochondria in response to a change in ...

Vitamin B2 enables regulation of fasting glucose availability
Flavin adenine dinucleotide (FAD) interacts with flavoproteins to mediate oxidation-reduction reactions required for cellular energy demands. Not surprisingly, mutations that alter FAD binding to flavoproteins cause rare inborn errors of metabolism (IEMs)

Assays of D-Amino Acid Oxidase Activity
D-amino acid oxidase (DAAO) is a well-known flavoenzyme that catalyzes the oxidative FAD-dependent deamination of D-amino acids. As a result of the absolute stereoselectivity and broad substrate specificity, microbial DAAOs have been employed as ...

New insights into the nutritional genomics of adult-onset riboflavin-responsive diseases
Riboflavin, or vitamin B2, is an essential nutrient that serves as a precursor to flavin adenine dinucleotide (FAD) and flavin mononucleotide (FMN). The binding of the FAD and/or FMN cofactors to flavoproteins is critical for regulating their assembly ...

The multifunctional nature of human flavoproteins is critically linked to their ability to populate multiple conformational states. Ligand binding, post-translational modifications and disease-associated mutations can reshape this functional landscape ...
