Elucidation of divergent desaturation pathways in the formation of vinyl isonitrile and isocyanoacrylate

Kim, W., Chen, T.-Y., Cha, L., Zhou, G., Xing, K., Canty, N. K., … Chang, W.-chen. (2022, September 12). Nature Communications, Vol. 9.

By: W. Kim *, T. Chen n, L. Cha n , G. Zhou*, K. Xing*, N. Canty n, Y. Zhang*, W. Chang n 

MeSH headings : Iron / metabolism; Ketoglutaric Acids / metabolism; Tyrosine
topics (OpenAlex): Metal-Catalyzed Oxygenation Mechanisms; Enzyme Catalysis and Immobilization; Metalloenzymes and iron-sulfur proteins
TL;DR: It is suggested that a carbocation might be deployed to enable chemically divergent desaturations through decarboxylation and deprotonation and hints at substrate promiscuity of these enzymes. (via Semantic Scholar)
