Book ChapterDOI

Biosynthesis of riboflavin.

TL;DR: Two reaction steps in the biosynthetic pathway catalyzed by 3,4-dihydroxy-2-butanone 4-phosphate synthase and riboflavin synthase are mechanistically very complex.
Journal ArticleDOI

Sequence of the cDNA encoding the Ca2+-activated photoprotein obelin from the hydroid polyp Obelia longissima ☆

TL;DR: The deduced amino acid sequence of apoObl revealed that this 195-aa protein has three EF-hand structures that are characteristic for Ca(2+)-binding domains, and strong aa homology was shown among apObl, apoaequorin and apoclytin.
Journal ArticleDOI

Crystal Structure of Lumazine Synthase from Mycobacterium Tuberculosis as a Target for Rational Drug Design: Binding Mode of a New Class of Purinetrione Inhibitors(,)

TL;DR: The structure of lumazine synthase from M. tuberculosis in complex with two purinetrione inhibitors is determined and the impact of structural changes in the active site on the altered binding and catalytic properties of the enzyme is discussed.
