The unusual bifunctional catalysis of epimerization and desaturation by carbapenem synthase.
High-level ab initio calculations have been used to study the mechanism for the conversion of (3S,5S)-carbapenam to the biologically active beta-lactam antibiotic, (5R)-carbapenem, catalyzed by carbapenem synthase. This process involves epimerization at C5 and desaturation at C2/C3. Our calculations...
