Characterization of the molybdenum cofactor of sulfite oxidase, xanthine, oxidase, and nitrate reductase. Identification of a pteridine as a structural component
Abstract
The molybdenum cofactor has been isolated in an oxidized inactive form from purified molybdoenzymes. The isolated material is shown to be a novel pterin. The active cofactor is presumably composed of molybdenum and a reduced form of the pterin.
