Abstract:Electron bifurcation exploits high energetic states to drive unfavorable single electron reactions and determining the overall mechanism governing these electron transfers represents an arduous task. Using extensive stopped-flow spectroscopy and kinetic simulations, Sucharitakul
et al.
now explore the bifurcation mechanism of the electron transfer flavoprotein EtfAB from the anaerobic gut bacterium
Acidaminococcus fermentans
. Strikingly, they illustrated that cata… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
