Stereospecificity of Pig Kidney and Pea Seedling Diamino Oxidases on 2-Methyl-1,4-diaminobutane

Article abstract of DOI:10.1039/c39840000803

Diamine oxidase from pea seedlings (PDAO) oxidizes both (R)- and (S)-2-methylputrescine at the less hindered C-4, whereas pig-kidney diamine oxidase (KDAO) shows a dependence on the stereochemistry of the substrate, since the (R)-isomer is oxidized at C-1 and the (S)-isomer at the less hindered amino group at C-4.
