Structural and Biochemical Characterization of Glycyl Radical Enzymes Abundant in Mammalian Gut Microbiota

The glycyl radical enzyme (GRE) superfamily uses a post-translationally installed glycyl radical to catalyze difficult chemical transformations involved in a variety of anaerobic microbial pathways. In Chapter 1, I will provide an overview of the GRE superfamily and the fascinating reactions they ar...
