Mechanisms and structures of crotonase superfamily enzymes--how nature controls enolate and oxyanion reactivity.
Structural and mechanistic studies on the crotonase superfamily (CS) are reviewed with the aim of illustrating how a conserved structural platform can enable catalysis of a very wide range of reactions. Many CS reactions have precedent in the 'carbonyl' chemistry of organic synthesis; they...
