Homogentisate dioxygenase cleaves the aromatic ring during the metabolic degradation of Phe and Tyr. Homogentisate dioxygenase deficiency causes alkaptonuria. The structure of homogentisate dioxygenase shows that the enzyme forms a hexamer arrangement comprised of a dimer of trimers. The active site iron ion is coordinated near the interface between the trimers [1]. This entry represents the C-terminal active site domain.

Homogentisate dioxygenase cleaves the aromatic ring during the metabolic degradation of Phe and Tyr. Homogentisate dioxygenase deficiency causes alkaptonuria. The structure of homogentisate dioxygenase shows that the enzyme forms a hexamer arrangement comprised of a dimer of trimers. The active site iron ion is coordinated near the interface between the trimers [1]. This entry represents the N-terminal domain which forms a jelly roll of beta-strands [1].
