TLDR
In this paper, temperature dependent magnetic susceptibility measurements of the reduced and of the oxidized diiron forms of purple acid phosphatase from kidney bean (KBP) and from bovine spleen (BSP) have been carried out in the temperature range 4.2-220 K in order to detect the strength of the exchange coupling between the two metal centers in the active site.

The catalytic mechanisms of binuclear metallohydrolases.

TL;DR: An updated review of the current understanding of metallohydrolase-catalyzed reactions is presented, focusing on four systems, purple acid phosphatases, Ser/Thr protein phosph atases, PPs, 3′-5′ exonucleases, and 5′-nucleotidases, which have contributed to major advancement of the understanding of the catalytic mechanisms that operate in such enzymes.

A Purple Acid Phosphatase from Sweet Potato Contains an Antiferromagnetically Coupled Binuclear Fe-Mn Center

TL;DR: The enzymatic and spectroscopic data strongly indicate the presence of catalytic Fe(III)-Mn(II) centers in the active site of the sweet potato enzyme, which is the first reported example of a protein containing an enzymatically active binuclear Fe-Mn center.

The active site of purple acid phosphatase from sweet potatoes (Ipomoea batatas) metal content and spectroscopic characterization.

TL;DR: It is shown that spPAP contains a Fe(III)-Zn(II) center in the active site as previously determined for the purple acid phosphatase from red kidney bean (kbPAP), and an alignment of the amino acid sequences suggests that the residues involved in metal-binding are identical in both plant PAPs.

Magnetostructural correlations in exchange coupled phenoxo-, alkoxo-, and hydroxo-bridged dinuclear iron(III) compounds

TL;DR: In this article, a semi-empirical magnetostructural correlation for exchange coupled dinuclear asymmetrically phenoxo-, alkoxo, and hydroxo-bridged iron(III) complexes has been established.

The Dimetal Center in purple acid phosphatases

TL;DR: In this paper, the dimetal center of PAPs has been studied using numerous spectroscopic methods such as Mossbauer spectroscopy, EPR, NMR, EXAFS, magnetic, electrochemical and resonance Raman studies characterizing most of the metal coordinating residues, the metal-metal separation and providing evidence of the similarity between enzymes from different sources.

Crystal structure of a purple acid phosphatase containing a dinuclear Fe(III)-Zn(II) active site.

TL;DR: The active-site structure of the homodimeric 111-kilodalton KBPAP is consistent with previous proposals regarding the mechanism of phosphate ester hydrolysis involving nucleophilic attack on the phosphate group by an Fe(III)-coordinated hydroxide ion.
