Why Monoamine Oxidase B Preferably Metabolizes <i>N</i>-Methylhistamine over Histamine: Evidence from the Multiscale Simulation of the Rate-Limiting Step

Histamine levels in the human brain are controlled by rather peculiar metabolic pathways. In the first step, histamine is enzymatically methylated at its imidazole <i>N</i><sup>τ</sup> atom, and the produced <i>N</i>-methylhistamine undergoes an oxidative deaminat...
