Pressure-induced effects on cytochrome oxidase: the aerobic steady state.

abstract：:Lysine-146 of rabbit muscle aldolase (D-fructose-1,6-biphosphate aldolase, EC 4.1.2.13) is absolutely conserved in class I (Schiff base) aldolases and has been implicated previously in catalysis by protein modification. Site-directed mutagenesis was used to change lysine-146 to alanine, glutamine, leucine, or histidin...
