Homologous acetone carboxylases select Fe(II) or Mn(II) as the catalytic cofactor
ABSTRACTAcetone carboxylases (ACs) catalyze the metal- and ATP-dependent conversion of acetone and bicarbonate to form acetoacetate. Interestingly, two homologous ACs that have been biochemically characterized have been reported to have different metal complements, implicating different metal depend...
