This paper shows for the first time that the spectral features of the ternary complex of tyrosinase/O2/phenol, trapped at low temperature using the very slow substrate 3,5-difluorophenol, are those of a l–g2:g2-peroxidodicopper(II) species, and that this remains the only enzyme species under turnover and substrate saturation conditions

Abstract

This paper shows for the first time that the spectral features of the ternary complex of tyrosinase/O2/phenol, trapped at low temperature using the very slow substrate 3,5-difluorophenol, are those of a l–g2:g2-peroxidodicopper(II) species, and that this remains the only enzyme species under turnover and substrate saturation conditions

Biochemistry & Biophysics focuses on the structure and chemistry of biomolecules and covers all aspects of basic biochemistry/biophysics, including molecular structure, enzyme kinetics and protein-protein interaction; this category also contains cross-disciplinary resources focused on a specific class of biological molecules, e.g., nucleic acids, steroids, magnesium, growth factors, free radicals, bio-membranes, and peptides. Excluded are resources dealing with the application of biochemical techniques to specific topics listed elsewhere in CC/LS. Resources with a strong emphasis on the integration of biochemical pathways (such as signal transduction or molecular motors) at the cellular level are placed in the Cell & Developmental Biology category.
