Crystal structure of D-amino acid oxidase mutant

Template:ABSTRACT PUBMED 24644036

Function

[OXDA_PIG] Regulates the level of the neuromodulator D-serine in the brain. Has high activity towards D-DOPA and contributes to dopamine synthesis. Could act as a detoxifying agent which removes D-amino acids accumulated during aging. Acts on a variety of D-amino acids with a preference for those having small hydrophobic side chains followed by those bearing polar, aromatic, and basic groups. Does not act on acidic amino acids.

About this Structure

3wgt is a 2 chain structure. Full crystallographic information is available from OCA.
