LITERATURE
evolution
-
the enzyme is a member of the family of NADPH-dependent FMN reductases
malfunction
-
arsH mutants are sensitive to the oxidizing agent menadione
metabolism
lack of inhibition by NADP+ versus NADPH at saturating concentrations of 1,4-benzoquinone is consistent with a ping-pong bi-bi mechanism. The reductive half-reaction at pH 6.0 has Kd values of 0.07 mM with NADPH and 1.8 mM with NADH. The kred for flavin reduction is independent of pH with values of about 10 per s with NADPH and about 5 per s with NADH. Hydride transfer from NADPH to FAD is fully rate limiting for the overall turnover of the enzyme
physiological function
additional information
-
although the enzyme is able to stabilize the anionic semiquinone form of the FMN, reduction of quinones involves the hydroquinone form of the flavin cofactor, and the enzymatic reaction occurs through a ping pong-type mechanism. ArsH is able to catalyze one-electron reactions (oxygen and cytocrome c reduction), involving the FMN semiquinone form, but with lower efficiency
