Structural Basis for the Mechanism of ATP-Dependent Acetone Carboxylation
Abstract Microorganisms use carboxylase enzymes to form new carbon-carbon bonds by introducing carbon dioxide gas (CO2) or its hydrated form, bicarbonate (HCO3 −), into target molecules. Acetone carboxylases (ACs) catalyze the conversion of substrates acetone and HCO3 − to form the product acetoacet...
