Substrate Binding in the FAD-Dependent Hydroxynitrile Lyase from Almond Provides Insight into the Mechanism of Cyanohydrin Formation and Explains the Absence of Dehydrogenation Activity(,)
[Image: see text] In a large number of plant species hydroxynitrile lyases catalyze the decomposition of cyanohydrins in order to generate hydrogen cyanide upon tissue damage. Hydrogen cyanide serves as a deterrent against herbivores and fungi. In vitro hydroxynitrile lyases are proficient biocataly...
