MindMap Gallery The catalytic mechanism of riboflavin dependent enzymes
Riboflavin-dependent enzymes are a crucial class of biological catalysts, including flavin mononucleotide (FMN) and flavin adenine dinucleotide (FAD)-dependent enzymes. The active site structure of these enzymes is complex, with the riboflavin cofactor binding in a specific manner. During catalysis, these enzymes facilitate chemical reactions through electron transfer and proton transfer mechanisms. Riboflavin-dependent enzymes play diverse roles in organisms, participating in energy metabolism, redox reactions, and other life activities, which are essential for maintaining normal physiological functions of organisms.
