recombinant His-tagged enzyme from Escherichia coli strain BL21(DE3)by nickel affinity chromatography | Leishmania donovani |
Reaction | Comment | Organism | Reaction ID |
---|---|---|---|
5,6,7,8-tetrahydrobiopterin + 2 NADP+ = biopterin + 2 NADPH + 2 H+ | conserved residue Tyr194 forms hydrogen bonds with the nucleophilic center of the substrate and stabilizes the transition state, conserved residue Lys198 lowers the pKa of the tyrosine, helps to stabilize the transition state, and may function as proton source for the tyrosine | Leishmania donovani |
