Vitamin K-dependent carboxylase: synthesis of an inhibitor of the glutamyl binding site.

abstract：:Electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) spectroscopy and analysis of the primary structure of the CMP-N-acetylneuraminic acid hydroxylase revealed that this enzyme is the first iron-sulphur protein of the Rieske type to be found in the cytosol of Eukarya. The dithionite-reduced hydroxylase exhibited an EPR signal known ...
