Popis: | Complex carbapenems are important clinical antibiotics for difficult-to-treat infections. An essential step in the biosyntheses of these natural products is stereospecific methylation at C6 and subsequent alkylations by cobalamin-dependent radical SAM methylases such as TokK and ThnK. We have prepared isotopically labeled substrates in a stereospecific manner and found that both homologous enzymes selectively abstract the 6-pro |
