Time-dependent density functional theory has been applied to investigate the electronic absorption spectrum of oxidized and reduced lumiflavin and its derivative, 8-NH(2)-lumiflavin. The calculations allow the authors to explain the origin of the difference in spectral features between oxidized and

DNA photolyases (EC 4.1.99.3) are enzymes that catalyze photoreversion of cis,syn-thymine photodimer (T[c,s]T), which is one of major photolesion products in DNA, by utilizing UV light. In this work, we have designed and synthesized Zn2+ -1,4,7,10-tetraazacyclododecane complexes bearing a lumiflavin

Ultrafast time-resolved infrared (TRIR) spectra of flavin adenine dinucleotide (FAD) and the anion of lumiflavin (Lf-) are described. Ground-state recovery and excited-state decay of FAD reveal a common dominant ultrafast relaxation and a minor slower component. The Lf- transient lacks

The cellular and molecular regulation of intestinal absorption of the water-soluble vitamin riboflavine (RF) is poorly understood. The availability of a suitable in vitro cultured system that possesses the transport characteristics of the native intestinal absorptive cells would provide a

The flavoenzyme medium-chain acyl-CoA dehydrogenase (MCAD) eliminates the alpha-proton of the substrate analog, 3-thiaoctanoyl-CoA (3S-C8-CoA), to form a charge-transfer complex with deprotonated 3S-C8-CoA. This complex can simulate the metastable reaction intermediate immediately after the alpha-proton elimination of a substrate and
