  • Title: Monoamine oxidase A and monoamine oxidase B activities are catalyzed by different proteins.
    Author: Smith D, Filipowicz C, McCauley R.
    Journal: Biochim Biophys Acta; 1985 Sep 20; 831(1):1-7. PubMed ID: 3899177.
    Abstract:
    Monoamine oxidases A and B (amino: oxygen oxidoreductase (deaminating) (flavin-containing), EC 1.4.3.4) have been identified in the outer membranes of rat liver mitochondria by their covalent reaction with the inhibitor, [3H]pargyline. On analysis by polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis under denaturing conditions. Monoamine oxidase A was found to migrate more slowly that monoamine oxidase B. Proteins which correspond to monoamine oxidases A and B (as identified by the electrophoretic distribution of covalently bound [3H]pargyline) were excised from the gels. Subsequent analysis showed that both monoamine oxidase A and monoamine B had been highly purified by this procedure. Electrophoretic analysis of the peptides produced by limited proteolysis with bovine trypsin, alpha-chymotrypsin, Staphylococcus aureus V8 proteinase and cyanogen bromide indicate that monoamine oxidases A and B have different amino acid sequences.
