Crystal structure of Cysteine dioxygenase from Pseudomonas aeruginosa
| ||||||||||||
Structural highlights
Function3MDO_PSEAE Thiol dioxygenase that catalyzes the dioxygenation of 3-mercaptopropionate (3-MPA) to 3-sulfinopropionate (3-SPA). To a lesser extent (40-fold lower efficiency), is also able to oxidize cysteine to cysteine sulfinate (CSA). Cannot use N-acetyl-L-cysteine, homocysteine, and cysteamine as substrates. The physiological role of this enzyme is unclear.[1] References
