These cofactors, or coenzymes, provide additional functionality that extends considerably the scope of enzyme-catalyzed reactions. Some cofactors (including the iron-porphyrin prosthetic groups of ...

Reactions analogous to flavin oxygenation have been proposed for enzymes catalyzing the cofactor-independent oxygenation of, for example, urate, 3-hydroxy-4-(1H)quinolones, p-hydroquinone ...

In order to recover valuable substances from CO2, it must be reduced in many individual steps. If electrocatalysis is used for this, many potentially different potential molecules are formed, which ...

The researchers used site-specific mutagenesis to gain new insights into how the cofactor precursor is integrated into the enzyme and how individual amino acids are involved in anchoring and ...
