Thioester hydrolysis and C-C bond formation by carboxymethylproline synthase from the crotonase superfamily.

(Chemical Equation Presented) Enzyme in action: Labeling studies and the finding that carboxymethylproline synthase catalyzes production of deuterated (2S,5S)-6,6′-dimethyl-trans-carboxymethylproline (3) from dimethylmalonyl-CoA (1) and labeled l-pyrroline-5-carboxylate (2) limit possible mechanisms...
