The different catalytic roles of the metal- binding ligands in human 4-hydroxyphenylpyruvate dioxygenase
Chih-Wei Huang, Hsiu-Chen Liu, Chia-Pei Shen, Yi-Tong Chen, Sung-Jai Lee, Matthew D. Lloyd, Hwei-Jen Lee
May 01, 2016
4‐Hydroxylphenylpyruvatedioxygenase (HPPD) is a non‐haem iron(II)‐dependent oxygenase that catalyzes the conversion of 4‐hydroxylphenylpyruvate (HPP) to homogentisate (HG). In the active site, a strictly conserved 2‐His‐1‐Glu...
DNMTs Play an Important Role in Maintaining the Pluripotency of Leukemia Inhibitory Factor-Dependent Embryonic Stem Cells.
