    Energy Transformation

    When Phe 59 is substituted with His and Tyr 101 is substituted with Phe, the k (app/cat) decreases in activity by 15-10 folds. The Lys 134 substitution of Met inhibits the enzyme activity. Phenylazophenol inhibits the LsdA-catalyzed cleavage of lignostilbene with a competitive and uncompetitive inhibition.
