Abstract:Chorismate mutases have extensively been used as computational benchmarking systems for enzyme catalysis, yet the roles entropy and enthalpy play in catalysis are still not fully understood. Thus, it is important to better understand these enzymes for potential research or industrial applications. Here, we report the first crystal structure and kinetic characterization of a chorismate mutase from Bacillus pumilus. This enzyme exhibits a high degree of similarity to a known mesophilic chorismate mutase from Bac… Show more
