Abstract

De novo protein design provides an attractive approach for the construction of models to probe the features required for the function of complex metalloproteins. These minimal models contain the essential elements believed necessary for activity of the protein. In this article, we summarize the design, structure determination, and functional properties of a family of artificial diiron proteins. Β© 2005 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. Biopolymers (Pept Sci), 2005

Histamine is a multifunctional biogenic amine with relevant roles in intercellular communication, inflammatory processes and highly prevalent pathologies. Histamine biosynthesis depends on a single decarboxylation step, carried out by a PLP-dependent histidine decarboxylase activity (EC 4.1.1.22), a
