Chemical aspects of amine oxidation by flavoprotein enzymes

Abstract

Covering: 1980–September 2004

The mechanism of amine oxidation by flavoprotein enzymes is critically analysed through analysis of available experimental data. The review assesses available evidence for radical and polar mechanisms, drawing on data from model reactions, kinetic and spectroscopic approaches, structural and mutagenesis studies. The review focuses on studies of mammalian monoamine oxidases and the bacterial enzymes trimethylamine dehydrogenase, monomeric sarcosine oxidase and dimethylglycine oxidase.
