Spectroscopic studies of galactose oxidase.
A combination of powerful spectroscopic approaches is now available for detailed characterization of active sites in free radical metalloenzymes. As illustrated for galactose oxidase, a single approach such as EPR or absorption spectroscopy is not sufficient to characterize a sample completely, and only by combining results from complementary techniques can the information in each approach be used most effectively.
