Steps in the mechanism of a hypothetical flavin-dependent sulfhydryl oxidase. The flavin and redox active disulfide common to all sulfhydryl oxidases is shown within the blue box. The reducing substrate (here a protein dithiol) and molecular oxygen are shown in salmon. Key steps in the mechanism are selected for emphasis and some of the deprotonation events are not shown explicitly.
