Mechanistically informed predictions of binding modes for carbocation intermediates of a sesquiterpene synthase reaction [PDF]

Chemical Science, 2016
Predicting the binding mode of carbocations produced in sesquiterpene synthase enzymes is not unlike finding a piece of hay in a haystack. A new method for tackling this problem is described.
