Lipoxygenases from pathogenic fungi belong to the lipoxygenase family of enzymes, which catalyze C-H activation of polyunsaturated fatty acids to form a diverse set of cell-signaling hydroperoxides. While the lipoxygenase catalytic domains are structurally and functionally similar, these fungal enzymes are decorated with N-linked glycans. The impact of N-linked glycans on the structure and function of these enzymes remains largely unknown. One exemplary system is MoLOX, a lipoxygenase from the fungus Magnaporthe oryzae, that is emerging as an important target for the devastating rice blast disease. Herein, we demonstrate that hydrogen transfer, associated with C-H cleavage of the substrate linoleic acid by MoLO... More
