Elucidation of the Stereochemical Mechanism of Cystathionine γ-Lyase Reveals How Substrate Specificity Constrains Catalysis

Anna Zmich,

et al.

Abstract: Pyridoxal phosphate (PLP)-dependent enzymes play essential roles in metabolism and have found applications for organic synthesis and as enzyme therapeutics. The vinylglycine ketimine (VGK) subfamily hosts a growing set of enzymes that play diverse roles in primary and secondary metabolism. However, the molecular determinants of substrate specificity and the complex acid−base chemistry that enables VGK catalysis remain enigmatic. We use a recently discovered amino acid γ-lyase as a model system to probe catalys… Show more
