An iron (II) dependent oxygenase performs the last missing step of plant lysine catabolism

An iron (II) dependent oxygenase performs the last missing step of plant lysine catabolism

Hydroxyglutarate synthase (HglS) converts 2-oxoadipate to D-2- hydroxyglutarate during lysine catabolism in bacteria. Here the authors use structural and biochemical approaches to show that HglS acts via successive decarboxylation and intramolecular hydroxylation and that homologous enzymes catalyze...
