Mechanism-based inactivation of thymine hydroxylase, an .alpha.-ketoglutarate-dependent dioxygenase, by 5-ethynyluracil

5-Ethynyluracil was shown to be a mechanism-based inactivator of thymine 7-hydroxylase, with Ki = 22 micromolar and a k2 = 2.6 min-1. Inactivation resulted in covalent modification of the enzyme with a stoichiometry of approximately 1 adduct/enzyme molecule. The reaction of thymine 7-hydroxylase wit...
