Structural basis of a bi-functional malonyl-CoA reductase (MCR) from the photosynthetic green non-sulfur bacterium Roseiflexus castenholzii by Xin Zhang, Jiyu Xin, Zhiguo Wang, Wenping Wu, Yutong Liu, Zhenzhen Min, Yueyong Xin, Bing Liu, Jun He, Xingwei Zhang, Xiaoling Xu

“…It catalyzes the two-step reduction of malonyl-CoA to 3-hydroxypropionate (3-HP), a key reaction in the autotrophic CO2 fixation cycles of Chloroflexaceae green non-sulfur bacteria and the archaea Crenarchaeota. However, the structural basis underlying substrate selection, coordination, and the subsequent catalytic reactions of full-length MCR is largely unknown. …”
