title: Recent results on the active site of amine oxidases.
abstract: A preparation of bovine plasma amine oxidase, containing only one copper ion per molecule, was obtained by treatment with diethyldithiocarbamate. The enzyme preparation still retained full activity. Thus, only one of the two copper ions contained in the enzyme molecule appears to be involved in the catalytic process.
