CRYOGENIC STRUCTURE OF P450CAM

Overview

Proton transfer in cytochromes P450 is a critical step in the activation, of molecular oxygen. Extensive study of the P450cam active site has, identified several residues that play a central role in dioxygen bond, scission. A highly conserved carboxylate, aspartate-251 in P450cam in the, distal helix I, participates in a series of hydrogen-bond/ion pairs near, the molecular surface and has been implicated in the catalytic mechanism., Mutation of Asp251 is known to lower activity by 2 orders of magnitude and, change the rate-limiting step in the catalytic cycle, suggesting a role, for an acid functionality in generation of iron-oxygen reactive, intermediates. The turnover rates of the Asp251Asn mutant in various, protium-deuterium mixtures have been determined and show a significantly, ... [(full description)]
