Stereochemistry of hydroxylation during the conversion of α-ketoisocaproate to β-hydroxyisovalerate by 4-hydroxyphenylpyruvate dioxygenase
摘要:
4-Hydroxyphenylpyruvate dioxygenase catalyzes the oxidative decarboxylation and hydroxylation of alpha-ketoisocaproate 1 to beta-hydroxyisovalerate 2 with retention of configuration during the hydroxylation step (Scheme 1). Copyright (C) 1996 Elsevier Science Ltd
