Journal ArticleDOI
Purple acid phosphatase from bovine spleen. Interactions at the active site in relation to the reaction mechanism.
TL;DR: A binuclear iron center is proposed for the purple acid phosphatase, which is bridged by a carboxylato and two aquo/hydroxo groups, but without a mu-oxo bridge.
Journal ArticleDOI
The amino acid sequence of the red kidney bean Fe(III)-Zn(II) purple acid phosphatase. Determination of the amino acid sequence by a combination of matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization mass spectrometry and automated Edman sequencing.
Thomas Klabunde,Bernd Stahl,Hildegard Suerbaum,Stephanie Hahner,Michael Karas,Franz Hillenkamp,Bernt Krebs,Herbert Witzel +7 more
TL;DR: The employed strategy shows that the classical method, in combination with modern mass spectrometry, is an attractive approach for primary structure determination in addition to the DNA sequencing method.
Journal ArticleDOI
The oligosaccharides of the Fe(III)-Zn(II) purple acid phosphatase of the red kidney bean. Determination of the structure by a combination of matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization mass spectrometry and selective enzymic degradation.
Bernd Stahl,Thomas Klabunde,Herbert Witzel,Bernt Krebs,Martin Steup,Michael Karas,Franz Hillenkamp +6 more
TL;DR: To reveal the sequence of the carbohydrate moiety including the linkage positions between the different saccharides, one of the glycopeptides was degraded by specific exoglycosidases and the detailed structure of this one glycan in conjunction with the respective mass spectra and the composition analysis were used to infer the structure of the other four glycans.
Journal ArticleDOI
Zn‐exchange and Mössbauer studies on the [Fe‐Fe] derivatives of the purple acid Fe(III)‐Zn(II)‐phosphatase from kidney beans
Hildegard Suerbaum,Michael Körner,Herbert Witzel,Erika Althaus,Bernd-Dieter Mosel,Werner Müller-Warmuth +5 more
TL;DR: Limited reduction of the oxidized enzyme with ascorbate delivers a mixture of the Fe(II)-Fe(II)/Fe(III)- Fe(III) species, but not the mixed valent Fe (III)-Fe (II) species; this indicates a half-integer spin system with antiferromagnetic coupling.
Journal ArticleDOI
Spectroscopic and exafs studies on catechol oxidases with dinuclear copper centers of type 3: Evidence for μ-η2:η2-peroxo-intermediates during the reaction with catechol
Annette Rompel,Helmut Fischer,K. Büldt-Karentzopoulos,Dirk Meiwes,Frank Zippel,H.-F. Nolting,Christoph Hermes,Bernt Krebs,Herbert Witzel +8 more
