1 Until recently little was known concerning the chemical details of the mechanism of interaction of flavin-linked mitochondrial membrane bound monoamine oxidase (MAO) with its substrates and inhibitors. 4,6-dinitro-o-cresol monoamine oxidase A Rattus norvegicus
2 Thus it is apparent that brain MAO also contains cysteinyl-flavin at the active center and therefore it is expected that acetylenic as well as hydrazine inhibitors form the same linkage with the flavin moiety as that formed with enzyme from peripheral tissues. 4,6-dinitro-o-cresol monoamine oxidase A Rattus norvegicus
