Thesis
Studies on the mechanism of ethylene-forming enzymes and their potential for biocatalysis
- Abstract:
-
The Amborella trichopoda 1-aminocyclopropane-1-carboxylic acid oxidase (ACCO) and the Pseudomonas syringae ethylene-forming enzyme (PsEFE) are Fe(II)-dependent O2 utilising enzymes that catalyse the formation of ethylene, an important industrial commodity and biological signalling molecule. This thesis describes biochemical and crystallographic studies on the mechanisms, structures, and substrate scopes of these two ethylene forming enzymes.
