Monoamine oxidases (MAOs) are a class of enzyme that are localized to the outer membrane of the mitochondria and catalyzes the oxidative deamination of different monoamines. There are two subtypes of MAOs: <scene name='Sandbox_Reserved_697/Mao-a/1'>MAO-A</scene> and <scene name='Sandbox_Reserved_697/Mao-b/1'>MAO-B</scene>, which are closely related in stucture, but each has different substrate and inhibitor specificities.

Monoamine Oxidases

Monoamine oxidases (MAOs) are a class of enzyme that are localized to the outer membrane of the mitochondria and catalyzes the oxidative deamination of different monoamines. There are two subtypes of MAOs: and , which are closely related in stucture, but each has different substrate and inhibitor specificities. The two subtypes of MAO shown were those of humans, which can vary between different species of mammals. Note that human MAO-A is monomeric while human MAO-B forms a dimer.
