Studies on deacetoxycephalosporin C synthase support a consensus mechanism for 2-oxoglutarate dependent oxygenases.

Deacetoxycephalosporin C synthase (DAOCS) catalyzes the oxidative ring expansion of penicillin N (penN) to give deacetoxycephalosporin C (DAOC), which is the committed step in the biosynthesis of the clinically important cephalosporin antibiotics. DAOCS belongs to the family of non-heme iron(II) and...
