Aminotransferase mechanism, amine oxidase

Mechanisms. Studies of model reactions473-476 and of electronic, Raman,456 477 478 ESR,479/480 and NMR spectra and kinetics481 have contributed to an understanding of these enzymes.459 461 464 482 483 For these copper amine oxidases the experimental evidence suggests an aminotransferase mechanism.450 453 474 4743 d Tire structure of the E.coli oxidase shows that a single copper ion is bound by three histidine imidazoles and is located adjacent to the TPQ (Eq. 15-53). Asp 383 is a conserved residue that may be the catalytic base in Eq. 15-53.474b A similar mechanism can be invoked for LTQ and TTQ. [Pg.817]

Topaquinone (TPQ), the oxidized form of 2,4,5-trihydroxyphenylalanine (TOPA), is the cofactor of copper-containing amine oxidases. The following model compounds have been prepared in order to understand the catalytic function of TPQ the jV-pivaloyl derivative of 6-hydroxydopamine in aqueous acetonitrile [38] topaquinone hydantoin and a series of 2-hydroxy-5-alkyl-l,4-benzoquinones in anhydrous acetonitrile (o- as well as />-quinones) [39] 2-hydroxy-5-methy 1-1,4-benzoquinone in aqueous system [40] and 2,5-dihydroxy-1,4-benzoquinone [41]. Reaction of model compounds with 3-pyrrolines revealed why copper-quinopro-tein amine oxidases cannot oxidize a secondary N [42], The studies clearly showed that certain model compounds do not require the presence of Cu for benzylamine oxidation whereas TPQ does [38,40] the aminotransferase mechanism proceeds via the -quinone form [39] the 470 nm band can be ascribed to a 71-71 transition of TPQ in />-quinonic form with the C-4 hydroxyl ionized but hydrogen bonded to some residue [40] hydrazines attack at the C-5 carbonyl, forming an adduct in the azo form [41], Electrochemical characterization has been carried out for free TPQ [43],... [Pg.569]

From the sequence of reactions found it follows that copper-quinoprotein amine oxidases catalyze an aminotransferase reaction. A different reaction sequence occurs with flavoprotein amine oxidases (EC 1.4.3.4), where formation of NH3 is not dependent on the presence of 02. However, since reductive trapping of amines in the first half-reaction [86] showed attachment of substrate but not of tritium, the mechanism is also different from the aminotransferase reaction that... [Pg.577]

The most recent crystallographic study discloses the structure of the methylamine oxidase from the yeast Hansenula polymorpha [31], which shows an integrated network of water molecules providing electron transfer from topa quinone to copper and other important features such as the channel for oxygen entry and hydrogen peroxide release. The role of the active site aspartate base (Asp319) in the aminotransferase mechanism of the copper amine oxidase from H. polymorpha has been probed by site-directed mutagenesis [141]. It has been demonstrated by several... [Pg.1280]
