Abstract:Integral membrane enzymes play essential roles in a plethora of biochemical processes. The fatty acid desaturases (FADS)‐like superfamily is an important group of integral membrane enzymes that catalyze a wide array of reactions, including hydroxylation, desaturation, and cyclization; however, due to the membrane‐bound nature, the majority of these enzymes have remained poorly understood. UndB is a member of the FADS‐like superfamily, which catalyzes fatty acid decarboxylation, a chemically challenging reactio… Show more
