L-delta-(alpha-Aminoadipoyl)-L-cysteinyl-D-valine (ACV) synthetase is probably the simplest known peptide synthetase in terms of the number of reactions catalyzed. In the "thiol-template" proposal for nonribosomal peptide synthesis, a key step is transfer of aminoacyl groups derived from the substrates to enzyme-bound

The O-acetylserine sulfhydrylase (OASS) reaction has been studied using a number of spectral probes including UV--visible, fluorescence, circular dichroism, and 31P NMR spectroscopy. The addition of L-cysteine, L-alanine, and glycine to OASS results in a shift in lambda max of

A screening of soil samples for D-amino acid oxidase (D-AAO) activity led to the isolation and identification of the gram-positive bacterium Arthrobacter protophormiae. After purification of the wild-type D-AAO, the gene sequence was determined and designated dao. An alignment of

SDH (L-serine dehydratase, EC 4.3.1.17) catalyzes the pyridoxal 5'-phosphate (PLP)-dependent dehydration of L-serine to yield pyruvate and ammonia. Liver SDH plays an important role in gluconeogenesis. Formation of pyruvate by SDH is a two-step reaction in which the hydroxyl group

SDH (l-serine dehydratase, EC 4.3.1.17) is a pyridoxal-5'-phosphate (PLP)-dependent enzyme that catalyzes dehydration of l-Ser/Thr to yield pyruvate/ketobutyrate and ammonia. A SDH isoform (cSDH) found in human cancer cell lines has relatively low catalytic activity in comparison with the liver
