Probing the Function of the Tyr-Cys Cross-Link in Metalloenzymes by the Genetic Incorporation of 3-Methylthiotyrosine

Efficient multiple‐electron redox reactions are performed by galactoase oxidase, cysteine dioxygenase, sulfite reductase, and cytochrome c nitrite reductase. A post‐translationally modified tyrosine–cysteine cross‐link (Tyr‐Cys) in their active sites is essential for their functions.
