Figure 3From: Crystal structure of a blue laccase from Lentinus tigrinus: evidences for intermediates in the molecular oxygen reductive splitting by multicopper oxidases(A) and (B) Representations of the Fo-Fc difference Fourier omit map for the T2/T3 active site of molecules A and B of Lt L respectively, each flanked by the corresponding schematic pictures. The electron density is contoured at 2.2 σ. (C) Schematic representation of the catalytic mechanism of multicopper oxidases including the intermediates observed in the present structural study and previous spectroscopic, kinetic, and structural investigations.Back to article page
