Copper/topa quinone-containing amine oxidases - recent research developments
Original language description
Amine oxidases (EC 1.4.3.6) that contain copper/topa quinone cofactor belong to a new protein group of quinoproteins emerging in recentyears. This review brings together information on the general properties of the enzymes and their physiological functions. In plants, these enzymes are involved in processes of development and senescence, they reduce the concentration of toxic amines produced during exposure to stress conditions, provide hydrogen peroxide for wall stiffening and lignification and precursor compounds for biosynthesis of some alkaloids. Major attention is currently being paid to the structure of the active site of the enzymes that contains copper ions and a posttranslationally modified tyrosyl residue, topa quinone. Three-dimensional structures recently obtained for several amine oxidases by X-ray diffraction analysis of the respective crystals provide important structural information about the unique protein folding of the native enzyme and molecular arrangement of the a
