Three-dimensional structures. The TPQ-con-taining amine oxidase from E. coU is a dimer of 727-residue subunits with one molecule of TPQ at position 402 in each subunit. 7458 Methylamine dehydrogenase is also a large dimeric protein of two large 46.7-kDa subunits and two small 15.5-kDa subunits. Each large subunit contains a TTQ cofactor Reduced TTQ is reoxidized by the 12.5-kDa blue copper protein amicyanin. Crystal structures have been determined for complexes of methylamine dehydrogenase with amicyanin and of these two proteins with a third protein, a small bacterial cytochrome...
