Molybdoenzymes and molybdenum cofactor in plants.

The transition element molybdenum (Mo) is essential for (nearly) all organisms and occurs in more than 40 enzymes catalysing diverse redox reactions, however, only four of them have been found in plants. (1) Nitrate reductase catalyses the key step in inorganic nitrogen assimilation, (2) aldehyde oxidase(s) have been shown to catalyse the last step in the biosynthesis of the phytohormone abscis...

Crystal structure and mechanism of CO dehydrogenase, a molybdo iron-sulfur flavoprotein containing S-selanylcysteine.

CO dehydrogenase from the aerobic bacterium Oligotropha carboxidovorans catalyzes the oxidation of CO with H(2)O, yielding CO(2), two electrons, and two H(+). Its crystal structure in the air-oxidized form has been determined to 2.2 A. The active site of the enzyme, which contains molybdenum with three oxygen ligands, molybdopterin-cytosine dinucleotide and S-selanylcysteine, delivers the elect...

Spectroelectrochemical study of heme- and molybdopterin cofactor-containing chicken liver sulphite oxidase.

Electron transfer (ET) in sulphite oxidase (SOx), a heme- and molybdopterin cofactor-containing enzyme, was studied spectroelectrochemically using capillary gold electrode modified with aldrithiol. Direct electron exchange between SOx and the surface of modified gold was observed, with a formal potential of -115 mV vs. Agmid R:AgCl, KCl(sat) at pH 7.0. This value agreed well with that previousl...

New approaches towards laboratory diagnosis of isolated sulphite oxidase deficiency.

BACKGROUND Molybdenum cofactor deficiency (resulting in combined deficiencies of the enzymes sulphite oxidase, xanthine dehydrogenase and aldehyde dehydrogenase) and isolated sulphite oxidase deficiency are inherited metabolic diseases which follow an autosomal recessive trait of inheritance. Detection of these diseases in selective screening for inborn errors of metabolism is not easy because ...

Electron transfer in milk xanthine oxidase as studied by pulse radiolysis.

Electron transfer within milk xanthine oxidase has been examined by the technique of pulse radiolysis. Radiolytically generated N-methylnicotinamide radical or 5-deazalumiflavin radical has been used to rapidly and selectively introduce reducing equivalents into the enzyme so that subsequent equilibration among the four redox-active centers of the enzyme (a molybdenum center, two iron-sulfur ce...
