The book gives a unique overview of this rapidly developing research field, presenting structures and properties of flavin derivatives as well as their proven application as bioinspired catalysts in various organocatalytic, biocatalytic, and photocatalytic reactions.
This publication, a collection of 174 papers, encompasses the fundamental and intricate photochemistry and electron transfer of flavins and flavoproteins, the mechanisms associated with enzymes utilising flavins (such as dehydrogenases, reductases, oxidases, monooxygenases, synthases, peroxidases), the three-dimensional structures of flavoproteins and flavoenzymes and the emerging role of flavins and flavoproteins in medicine. Flavins and Flavoproteins 1996 continues the series which has appeared every three years since 1965. Presented are overviews of key areas of flavin research, coupled with the most recent understanding of the chemistry/photochemistry of flavins and the structure/functio...

This symposium focused on the structure-function relation of our flavoproteins. Different kinds of approaches through physical, chemical, biological and genetical studies were presented. The papers presented could be classified into those on theoretical and chemical approaches; biosynthesis of flavins; flavoproteins containing dissociable or covalently bound flavin as the sole catalytic center; complex flavoproteins containing flavin and other prosthetic group(s) for catalytic activity; and enzymes using reduced flavin for their activity.
