“…They were also found to be transient intermediates in a variety of enzymes, such as peroxidases (31), cytochrome c oxidase (49), and in DNA photolyase, where, depending on the organism, tryptophan or tyrosine radicals have been observed (50). The reported g x values of tyrosine radicals range from 2.0091 for a non-polar environment in RNR of E. coli (34, 38, 51) to 2.0076 for a hydrogenbonded situation in RNR of mouse and yeast (34,38,39) and in plant photosystem II (37,43). Recently, for a tyrosine radical in turnip peroxidase, a significantly lower value of 2.0066 was reported, probably indicating strong hydrogen bonding (31).…”
