Title: Reactions of pyrzdoxal 5'-phosphate, 6-aminocaproic acid, cysteine, and penicilamine. Models for reactions of Schiff base linkages in pyridoxal 5'-phosphate-requiring enymes. Author: Schonbeck ND, Skalski M, Shafer JA. Journal: J Biol Chem; 1975 Jul 25; 250(14):5343-51. PubMed ID: 237917. Abstract: Schiff base formation, transaldimination, and reaction with aminothiols are important reactions which occur on the surface of pyridoxal-P-requiring enzymes. As a first step in assessing the role of the protein in these reactions, models for these reactions were studied in the absence of enzyme at 25 degrees, gamma/2 0.28. The reaction of 6-aminocaproic acid with pyridoxal-P to form the Schiff base N6-(P-pyridoxylidene)-aminocaproic acid was studied as a model for formation of Schiff base on the holoenzyme...[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
