Crystal Structure of an Active Site Mutant Form of IRG1 from <i>Bacillus subtilis</i>
Immune-responsive gene1 (IRG1), an enzyme that is overexpressed during immune reactions, catalyzes the production of itaconate from cis-aconitate. Itaconate is a multifunctional immuno-metabolite that displays antibacterial and antiviral activities. The recent resolution of its structure has enabled...
