Mechanistic Insight with HBCH[subscript 2]CoA as a Probe to Polyhydroxybutyrate (PHB) Synthases
Polyhydroxybutyrate (PHB) synthases catalyze the polymerization of 3-(R)-hydroxybutyrate coenzyme A (HBCoA) to produce polyoxoesters of 1–2 MDa. A substrate analogue HBCH[subscript 2]CoA, in which the S in HBCoA is replaced with a CH[subscript 2] group, was synthesized in 13 steps using a chemoenzym...
