Type: | Conserved_site | Name: | Copper type II, ascorbate-dependent monooxygenase, histidine-cluster-2 conserved site |
Description: | Copper type II, ascorbate-dependent monooxygenases [] are a class of enzymes that requires copper as a cofactor and which uses ascorbate as an electron donor. This family contains two related enzymes, Dopamine-beta-monooxygenase () and Peptidyl-glycine alpha-amidating monooxygenase (). There are a few regions of sequence similarities between these two enzymes,two of these regions contain clusters of conserved histidine residues which are most probably involved in binding copper.This entry represents a conserved site that covers the second cluster of conserved histidine residues. | Short Name: | Cu2_ascorb_mOase_CS-2 |
