Single Amino Acid Switch between a Flavin-Dependent Dehalogenase and Nitroreductase
[Image: see text] A single mutation within a flavoprotein is capable of switching the catalytic activity of a dehalogenase into a nitroreductase. This change in function correlates with a destabilization of the one-electron-reduced flavin semiquinone that is differentially expressed in the nitro-FMN...

description | [Image: see text] A single mutation within a flavoprotein is capable of switching the catalytic activity of a dehalogenase into a nitroreductase. This change in function correlates with a destabilization of the one-electron-reduced flavin semiquinone that is differentially expressed in the nitro-FMN reductase superfamily during redox cycling. The diversity of function within such a superfamily therefore has the potential to arise from rapid evolution, and its members should provide a convenient basis for developing new catalysts with an altered specificity of choice. |
