Interactions of Metals and Radicals: A Biochemical Perspective in Tryptophan Dioxygenase

An intriguing mystery about tryptophan 2, 3-dioxygenase is its hydrogen peroxide-triggered enzyme reactivation from the resting ferric oxidation state to the catalytically active ferrous form. In this study, we found that such an odd Fe(III) reduction by an oxidant depends on the presence of L-Trp,...
