The results are consistent with a scenario in which HSA becomes acylated due to a nucleophilic attack by Tyr-411 on the substrate and then is deacylated by general acid or base catalysis with the participation of water.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
