Abstract

Abstract: The coordination chemistry of the active site iron in catechol 1, 2-dioxyygenase (CTD) from Pseudomonas putida (ATCC 23974) has been probed with NMR spectroscopy. The high-spin ferric center gives rise to paramagnetically shifted resonances in the range of 105 to-67 ppm, assigned to protons on the iron ligands. Observed endogenous ligand resonances are assigned to P-CH2 protons of tyrosines and histidines. Exogenous ligand ...
