Crystallization (Comment) Organism
mutant Y200L, with bound S-adenosyl-L-methionine and 3,5-dinitrocatechol, to 1.6 A resolution Rattus norvegicus

Protein Variants

Protein Variants Comment Organism
K144A mutation of the proposed catalytic Lys residue, does not abolish COMT activity Rattus norvegicus
K144A/V173Y shift towards para-selectivity Rattus norvegicus
W38D mutation of hydrophobic pocket, approximately +93% regioisomeric excess, and around 50% conversion of substrate 3,4-dihydroxybenzaldehyde Rattus norvegicus
W38K mutant favors para- over meta-methylation of dihydroxy substrates Rattus norvegicus
W38R mutant favors para- over meta-methylation of dihydroxy substrates Rattus norvegicus
Y200L mutant favors meta- over para-methylation of dihydroxy substrates, and exhibits the greatest meta-selectivity whilst retaining relative activity similar to that of the wild-type Rattus norvegicus
