Figure 1.
FIGURE 1. Reactions catalyzed by copper amine oxidases are
biogenesis (a) and catalysis (b). a, the protein derived
cofactor, TPQ, is the product of biogenesis and generates the
mature enzyme. P represents the rest of the polypeptide chain.
b, catalysis is divided into two half-reactions, reductive and
oxidative. R represents the moiety of the substrate amine, which
varies from a hydrogen atom to a polypeptide.
