Abstract: | The vitamin B2 and its coenzyme forms binding to glycogen phosphorylase b from rabbit skeletal muscle has been studied by the spectrophotometric method. The spectral properties of riboflavin, FMN and FAD bound to muscle glycogen phosphorylase b were found to be identical at the wavelengths of 300 to 500 nm. According to data on spectrophotometric titration of muscle glycogen phosphorylase b by FMN, each subunit of the enzyme contains one flavin-binding site. |
