How biology handles nitrite
Nitrite is one of the players in the broad nitrogen biogeochemical cycle. This nitrogen oxo-
anion is involved in key pathways crucial to life on Earth and to the planetary “recycling” of …

Synthetic analogues and reaction systems relevant to the molybdenum and tungsten oxotransferases
JH Enemark, JJA Cooney, JJ Wang, RH Holm - Chemical reviews, 2004 - ACS Publications
Enzymes containing molybdenum or tungsten at their active sites appear to be present in all
forms of life, from ancient archaea to man. These enzymes catalyze a wide range of …

Cytochrome c: Occurrence and Functions
I Bertini, G Cavallaro, A Rosato - Chemical reviews, 2006 - ACS Publications
Cytochromes c are among the most studied proteins. This is possibly due to their relatively
high thermodynamic stability and their red color, which makes protein purification easier. 1 …

Mammalian molybdo-flavoenzymes, an expanding family of proteins: structure, genetics, regulation, function and pathophysiology
The molybdo–flavoenzymes are structurally related proteins that require a molybdopterin
cofactor and FAD for their catalytic activity. In mammals, four enzymes are known: xanthine …
