Contrary to wild-type, peroxide-induced inactivation is irreversible -, 742061 1.7.1.13 C99S mutant does not compromise enzyme activity. Contrary to wild-type, peroxide-induced inactivation is irreversible -, 742061 1.7.1.13 C190A mutation in catalytic residue, no evidence of covalent binding of substrate preQ0. Mutant displays proton uptake 742900 1.7.1.13 C190A the mutation annihilates preQ0 covalent binding and largely disrupts the nitrile-to-amine reductase activity 764418 1.7.1.13 C190S the mutation annihilates preQ0 covalent binding and largely disrupts the nitrile-to-amine reductase activity 764418 1.7.1.13 D197A the variant does not take up protons in conjunction with preQ0 binding 764418 1.7.1.13 D197H the variant recovers proton uptake to a level almost analogous to that seen with the wildtype enzyme 764418 1.7.1.13 H229A the variant readily forms the thioimidate adduct and is 24fold less active for preQ0 reduction than wild type enzyme 764418 1.7.1.13 E89A the variant performs primarily (more than 90%) a two-electron reduction of 7-cyano-7-deazaguanine (preQ0), releasing hydrolyzed imine (7-formyl-7-deazaguanine) as the product 765048 1.7.1.13 E89L the variant performs primarily (more than 90%) a two-electron reduction of 7-cyano-7-deazaguanine (preQ0), releasing hydrolyzed imine (7-formyl-7-deazaguanine) as the product 765048 1.7.1.13 F228A the variant performs primarily (more than 90%) a two-electron reduction of 7-cyano-7-deazaguanine (preQ0), releasing hydrolyzed imine (7-formyl-7-deazaguanine) as the product 765048 1.7.1.13 I192A the 7-cyano-7-deazaguanine (preQ0) reduction by the mutant gives 7-aminomethyl-7-deazaguanine (preQ1) and 7-formyl-7-deazaguanine at a 1:1 ratio 765048 1.7.1.13 L191A the 7-cyano-7-deazaguanine (preQ0) reduction by the mutant gives 7-aminomethyl-7-deazaguanine (preQ1) and 7-formyl-7-deazaguanine at a 4:1 ratio 765048
