Protein Variants

Protein Variants Comment Organism
additional information construction of a truncated mutant lacking the terminal half of the C-terminus, i.e. residues from Ile1413 to Ser1429. The mutation has almost no impact on NADP+ release, flavin reduction, flavin autoxidation, heme reduction, reductase activity, or NO synthesis activity, but does prevent an increase in FMN shielding that normally occurs in response to NADPH binding. Additional removal of the C-terminal alpha-helix, residues 1401 to 1412, significantly increases the NADP+ release rate, flavin autoxidation, and NADPH oxidase activity, and causes hyper-deshielding of the FMN cofactor associated with increased reductase activity and slightly diminished heme reduction and NO synthesis. Further removal of residues downstream from Gly1396, a full C-terminus truncation, amplifies the aforementioned effects and in addition altered NADP+ interaction with FAD, relieves the kinetic suppression on flavin reduction, and further diminishes heme reduction and NO synthesis Rattus norvegicus
