ISOPENICILLIN-N SYNTHASE - A NEW MODE OF REACTIVITY

Incubation of L-δ-(α-aminoadipoyl)-L-(3,3-difluorohomocysteinyl)-D-valine [an analogue of the natural substrate: L-δ-(α-aminoadipoyl)-L-(cysteinyl)-D-valine] with isopenicillin N synthase (IPNS) resulted in the production of a thiocarboxylic acid, i.e. both equivalents of the dioxygen cosubstrate we...
