Ternary-complex structures of the Y128F mutant. (a) The Y128F mutant soaked with benzoylformate, which mainly adopts a pro-R conformation. (b) The Y128F mutant liganded with benzoate, which is the product of the four-electron oxidation reaction catalyzed by the Y128F mutant in the presence of (S)-mandelate. (c) The Y128F mutant liganded with phenylpyruvate, an oxidized product, when soaked with phenyllactate. (d) The Y128F mutant liganded with phenylacetate, which is the product of the four-electron oxidation reaction catalyzed by the Y128F mutant in the presence of 2-­phenyllactate. (e) Y128F bound by the α-hydroxylacid analog 2-hydroxypropanoate. (f) When the Y128F mutant is bound by (R)-mandelate, the structural conformation is similar to that of (S)-mandelate, while the α-OH group points away from His252. The free ligands, FMN and active-site residues are shown in cyan, yellow and green, respectively. The 2FoFc electron-density map is contoured at 2σ.
