CRYSTAL STRUCTURE OF H129V MUTANT OF ALCALIGENES XYLOSOXIDANS NITRITE REDUCTASE
Overview
Copper nitrite reductases contain both an electron-transfer type 1 Cu site and a catalytic type 2 Cu site. We have mutated one of the type 2 copper ligating histidines to observe the effect on catalytic turnover. This mutation has created a unique site where Cu is ligated by 2 His Nepsilon2 atoms alone.
