Journal ArticleDOI
The production of superoxide anion radicals in the reaction of reduced flavins and flavoproteins with molecular oxygen
Vincent Massey,Sidney Strickland,Stephen G. Mayhew,Larry G. Howell,Paul C. Engel,Rowena G. Matthews,Marilyn Schuman,Patrick A. Sullivan +7 more
TL;DR: In contrast to the results with the intact enzyme, the reduction of cytochrome c by deflavoxanthine oxidase is not inhibited by erythrocuprein, indicating that the site of production of O2•− in the native enzyme is flavin, rather than non-heme iron.
Journal ArticleDOI
The Purification and Properties of the Flavoprotein Melilotate Hydroxylase
Sidney Strickland,Vincent Massey +1 more
TL;DR: A bacterium has been isolated from soil by enrichment culture using melilotate as the sole carbon source and has been tentatively identified as a Pseudomonad capable of converting melilotates to 2,3-dihydroxyphenylpropionate, and this enzyme has been purified to homogeneity making use of a substrate-specific elution from DEAE-cellulose.
Journal ArticleDOI
The Mechanism of Action of the Flavoprotein Melilotate Hydroxylase
Sidney Strickland,Vincent Massey +1 more
TL;DR: The reaction mechanism of melilotate hydroxylase has been investigated by a variety of kinetic methods, and a reaction mechanism is proposed based on the steady state analysis, which enabled the kinetic constants for the reaction to be determined.
Journal ArticleDOI
Kinetic and mechanistic studies on the reaction of melilotate hydroxylase with deuterated melilotate.
TL;DR: Observations are compatible with the thesis that the above intermediate is an oxygenated form of the reduced flavine prosthetic group and that the last step of the proposed mechanism is rapid and involves a primary isotope effect.
Book ChapterDOI
The role of flavins in hydroxylase reactions
TL;DR: This chapter focuses on the role of flavins in hydroxylase reactions, and the nature of the active oxygen produced during the Hydroxylation phase of the catalytic cycle is of great interest.
