Crystal structure of H108A peptidylglycine alpha-hydroxylating monooxygenase (PHM)Crystal structure of H108A peptidylglycine alpha-hydroxylating monooxygenase (PHM)
Structural highlights
Function[AMD_RAT] Bifunctional enzyme that catalyzes 2 sequential steps in C-terminal alpha-amidation of peptides. The monooxygenase part produces an unstable peptidyl(2-hydroxyglycine) intermediate that is dismutated to glyoxylate and the corresponding desglycine peptide amide by the lyase part. C-terminal amidation of peptides such as neuropeptides is essential for full biological activity. |
