Maturation of molybdoenzymes and its influence on the pathogenesis of non-typeable Haemophilus influenzae

Maturation of molybdoenzymes and its influence on the pathogenesis of non-typeable Haemophilus influenzae

Mononuclear molybdenum enzymes of the dimethylsulfoxide (DMSO) reductase family occur exclusively in prokaryotes, and a loss of some these enzymes has been linked to a loss of bacterial virulence in several cases. The MobA protein catalyzes the final step in the synthesis of the molybdenum guanine d...
