Non-enzymatic formation of isoprene and 2-methyl-3-buten-2-ol (2-MBO) by manganese
Abstract It has been suggested that isoprene synthesis by isoprene synthase (IspS) proceeds via a substrate-assisted mechanism. The authors observed a non-enzymatic isoprene formation by Mn2+, which represents the basis of IspS enzyme reaction. Because IspS and many other terpene synthases require M...
